filming OS event : what impact ?

[Peggy Holman]

I've been doing OS gatherings with journalists for the last several  
years (see www.journalismthatmatters.org).  The last three or four  
have included live streaming.  (In fact, I'm told there is footage of  
me opening the space which I haven't yet seen.)

During the opening, we let people know that the ground rule is  
everything is on the record.  If they really don't want a camera  
around, they can say so.  Seems to work just fine.
