I think it is a great idea to film the conference. And many thanks to
Tom for offering to do that!

But I don't think producing DVDs and selling them is the the most import
thing we can do with those videos. Not many people would buy them so the
money made is probably negligable. But if the videos can be downloaded
from/watched on the web site it is a great advertisment for the project.
It would also help those OSM people who couldn't come to the conference
to learn more things.

(We can also do an audio only version suitable for listening to on your
mp3 player. I follow a lot of conferences that way.)
