Thanks, I took a look at some! Great stuff, and thank you for the "Video
produced by PLUG" plug at the end credits.

It is just a bare-bones ingest station, the next step up is probably
hooking up the lapel-microphone for the speaker.

We've streamed/recorded StartupWeekend and other events in the past:

...but the setup/teardown of our equipment hasn't gotten any easier
since then and improving it will take a bit of effort. I do think
there's a lot to be said for the live-or-bust no-post-processing
approach. ::-)

$ cd /tmp
$ wget https://www.plug.org.au/documents/plug-logo.svg
$ inkscape plug-logo.svg -e plug-logo-transparent.png --export-dpi=200
$ convert plug-logo-transparent.png -background "#000000" -flatten plug-logo-black.png

I take it there was a bit of:

involved?

I was hoping to have met up with you before now - tell us when's good?

Nick.
