Re: recording meetings

A few quick follow up thoughts about this recording thing

(the transcripts are v useful to catch up and document what was said, but
 a bit difficult and long to read. Recordings do have an important place
for ppl who cannot attend the meetings)

a few other possibilities to explore:

- is there anyone really who would not consent to their voice being
recorded in this group? aren't most people here to share and make their
voice heard?

- if not, or if they are a tiny minority, then permission to record could
be a condition to participating in the call in the first place.

- was thinking about the parallel with taking minutes, isnt a recording the
same as minutes? has anyone every objected to what they say in  a call be
struck of the proceedings? would this be a legitimate/sane request (unless
these had been recorded incorrectly of course). How can the law
be different between recording an intervention in writing and/or using
appropriate technology (voice)

- a solution that does not require a muffle functionality to be in place
yet, could be having two parallel calls going on
one where the participants give consent to record their voice, where they
can also speak and intervene, then a
'listen only' call, where participants are not allowed to intervene (but
can do so on IRC and email for example)
Somehow it feels fair that if someone dont want their voice recorded, by so
doing, also waive their right to make their voice heard. They can always
post a note :-)

Just thoughts for the record

Til next
