I think that making this available in audio format would be important to cover a number of points:

1) I think that (good intentions aside), the choice to copy spoken filler verbatim will likely backfire. Slashdot has gained many users in recent months, including many casual observers. Without understanding of Slashdot's (unusual) interview policy, misinterpretation seems quite likely.

2) Not able to speak for Lars, I'm not convinced I would be thrilled to have that as my only form of response to a forum known to be potentially rabid (Was there a way to clear the final 'print' version with him?);

3) Slashdot is a media outlet in a period of fantastic growth. The maintainers and users appear to advocate the spread of information to the greatest (and clearest) degree possible. With that in mind, I think that not only this, but very probably

any audio interview done by Slashdot (with permission of all involved) should probably be audio archived if possible for future reference. Slashdot interviews have changed from semi-novel looks at the inside of the community to fairly respectable candidates for primary source usage.
