I would be very interested in this as well, as I too won't be able to
make it this time sadly.

Thanks,

It's the same issues we have with remote participation to design summit
sessions. It's possible to arrange a specific person (or set of persons)
to attend a specific session (via some combination of tools). It's
impossible to let everyone attend everything without significantly
impacting the quality of the in-person discussion.

So ideally the agenda would identify key missing stakeholders for
specific sessions, and try to patch them in. And in all cases, you must
make sure any discussion is documented and no decision is final, so that
excluded people can still chime in.

As a remote participant at the last mid-cycle meeting I'm going to agree 
with this.  I successfully participated in a few topics and otherwise 
just tried to listen in to what was being discussed. Getting involved 
with most discussions was difficult because although the audio was quite 
good for a remote setup there were two challenges.  I couldn't catch 
everything that was said and was likely to mention something that had 
already been discussed, which regressed the conversation.  And because 
one participant in the call is a room and not someone close to a 
microphone you end up having to treat it like a half-duplex connection 
which significantly slows down discussion.


So while I enjoyed listening in and am very thankful for the opportunity 
to have done so, it is not at all a substitute for being there.

Hi Andrew and Thierry,

Thanks for your feedbacks. I truly understand that most of the time,
remote people slow down the live conversation because of the audio
quality or bad understandings.

With regards to that, I would propose the following :
 - key missing participants need to be identified for each session
(possibly based on voting) and only those would be possibly
participating remotely. Others could still listen to the stream but no
voice could be shared
 - for the key participants, a local peer has to be proposed who will be
attending the session and proxy the remote voice. No audio question from
the remotee, he has to type the questions to his peer so the peer can
speak in behalf of him
 - the key missing participant has to accept that the peer would
possibly not share exactly his ideas. That's a voting delegation
(well, sort of...) so if questions have to be made to the questioner,
that's the peer who would answers, without waiting the remote answer.
 - the peer has to accept the extra overload that represents a mixed
IRC+live communication.

The idea above is just to find a way to have some interactivity, but
with still the idea that in-person discussions stay the only way to
communicate.

At minimum I can arrange for a phone bridge at the sprint (Intel `lives` on 
phone conferences) so we can certainly do that.  Video might be more 
problematic, I know we did something with Google Plus at the last sprint but I 
don't know the details on that.

We were talking about doing something with google+ for Chris Yeoh, but
haven't really progressed the plan. Does someone want to pick up the
ball with that or shall I?
