Hi
I definitely agree that remote interactions should be avoided. The
whole point of meeting in person is to discuss the topics that we have
trouble discussing remotely via IRC/mailing list/phone and where we
need real live feedback. Trying to debate over SIP would just defeat
the point.
As for live audio/video stream, I would suggest it's a bit of a
complication we don't need. We could just do recordings and upload
them publically or not afterwards depending on the speaker choice.
Cheers,
Sylvain
