Whether we have automatic speech-to-text conversion or not, I think it would be good for people involved to take and publish notes summarizing the conversation. One of the important things about our usual async written communication is that it gives people time to organize their thoughts and say what they want succinctly. Live conversations are often full of false starts and rambling. That's OK, and a necessary part of the process. But if you want a wider audience to follow along, it helps to turn that into something more time efficient for readers.
