Hello,

leaving context for others so that they can voice their opinions if they
don't agree with me that video coverage is desirable.

The discussion will involve security team, LTS team and ftpmasters and
possibly a bunch a LTS users. But given that the topic is possibly of

We already have a separate presentation of the LTS team in a talk. So I
believe that we do respect this criteria.
