Please take into consideration that the idea of online language summit was conceived, planned, and organized within the past 30 days amidst the global covid-19 pandemic. As a comparison, we had begun planning for the in-person language summit since fall of 2019. In our limited time and energy available, we as language summit chairs made the choice to prioritize those who were already prepared and committed to attend the in-person language summit, that they get the experienced we promised. Additionally, we haven't organized such online meeting discussion with 50 active participants before, we're still learning this new process and did not know how well it would go. So we decided to be conservative in our effort, and we chose to keep it a small manageable group. I do recognize that we could at least have sent out an update to the community about the remote language summit, even if we couldn't take in additional participants. I'll definitely keep this in mind for future events. Thank you for your understanding.
