Preservation of Regents Recordings: Please Stand By

As blog readers will know, yours truly has been preserving recordings of the Regents meetings, first as audios and more recently in video format, for many years. We have often noted that we do so because it is regental policy to delete them after one year. 

Yesterday, I received an email from a representative of the Regents saying that the one-year rule is no longer in effect and that it changed at a point in 2019. 

I am endeavoring to find out if the official policy is now indefinite preservation (as opposed to not having deleted the recordings for some period longer than a year). 

At several points in the past when I inquired about the one-year rule from the now-retired secretary of the Regents, I was told that there is such a rule and was given the explanation that one year is what CSU does.

Yours truly would be delighted if there is now a rule of indefinite preservation; it would save him the hassle of downloading and uploading each meeting. So, please stand by while we await clarification.
