This looks like a really interesting (and topical) lecture,  
unfortunately not great for our time zone (Asia Pacific: 11am EDT =  
1am Aust. EST).

Is anyone planning to record this session and able to make it  
available for replay at a reasonable time?

Alternatively, could we have permission to record the session with  
AGVCR?
