As far as this talk goes, if we can find a suitable venue for streaming
then great, but if we don't find an alternate venue in time then I don't
see it as a problem.  The AV tail shouldn't really be wagging the PLUG
dog so to speak.  ;)

I'd prefer FutureSphere as a much more audience friendly location than
Artifactory at this stage.  Artifactory is great for hands on tech
fiddling, but I don't think it is ideal for 'professional presentations'
as such, if PLUG is looking at broadening its horizons a little.

Just my $0.02.
