I know in the Philly Linux Users Group we often record. Two of our members
volunteer to record and post. If the presenter wishes to not be recorded
for any reason or lack there of, the recording is not made. The only part
of our meetings that are recorded are the presentations. Slide decks can be
made available optionally in our group as well.

I hope this helps as this LUG as it's being discussed.
