If not, we also discussed not doing streaming in all the rooms. The
number of hits we got on the live streams over the past two Flocks
were fairly low. It's quite a bit of hassle to set this up and we
want to make sure it's actually worthwhile for all talks instead of
just for the large room.
Looking on analytics from Prague, we had only 48 views online during
the event but several thousand recording views (*). So the live stream is
not the must but having recordings available as soon as possible is a
good idea. With the way how Google's streaming works, it's easiest way
but...

(*) EU Flock, so timezones makes difference for folks in the US,
other way it's possible to watch live streams.
