I absolutely agree with you Sean. We should use irc:openstack-community for the accompanying text-only transcript and a general OpenStack community YouTube channel as a Hangout target would be awsome.
I'm happy to see this experiment run in real life, I'd love my gut feeling to be wrong. My main concern is that it would create a separation between first class citizens that have the full speed experience and second/third class ones that will have to use a worse system. Do I understand correctly that you want to use a live transcription service like a close caption system to transcribe live on irc what is being told on hangout? I'm assuming you would use Hangout as a broadcast system, muting all participants and let only the presenter talk, right?
I would use Google+ Hangouts in exactly the same manner as usual with multiple speakers and such. No changes here. As for the transcript part on IRC - yes, I would do that the way you described it. I understand your concerns, but please note that this idea was born in conversations with people in emerging countries and they were excited about it. Anyways, I wish to see that experiment run in real life, too. The proof of the pudding is in the eating.
It's good to have all content from online sessions in one place.
We can use the foundation's YouTube channel.
Makes perfectly sense to me, I forgot there already is a foundation YouTube channel.
I will do some research over the next few days: Who would be able to provide that transcription service as I described it?
I don't know any, sorry.
No worries, I will handle that.
