Calling for access to all future Access presentations

It's a bit late now, but as the guy in the corner with the clicky keyboard desperately trying to take notes during the presentations (when not stifling giggles and snorts from #code4lib), I would be a lot more relaxed if I was certain that the presentations were going to be made accessible through the Access 2006 Web site.

So, I would like to put forward the following motion:

Be it resolved that the organizers of future Access conferences shall ask speakers to make a copy of their presentations available under an open access license.

Do I have a seconder? Discussion?

Seconded.

They are going to be put up somewhere, I believe... I've certainly sent them mine - complete with CC Attribution license, so people can reuse stuff if they want... ;-)
