For someone like me who has not kept track of what technology is exactly
used for remote hubs, whats the best URL to catch up ?

Eg: For the use-cases discussed on this thread such as developing world
hubs whee i guess the issue is not only ability not to travel but also 
inability to
have individual remote participant HW/network connection, i can't quute see how
the first instance of a remote hub should need to be anything different than a
single remote participant hardware ("notebook") in a room, connected to 
projector
and noise cancelling speakerphone and a user acting as the remote hub admin in
front of it managing requests for comments from other participants in the room.
Aka: nothing that looks different to the WG chair than an individual remote
participant called "Room Foobar in Faraway Town".

Cheers
    Toerless

Disclaimer: Its much easier to have an opinion if you do not understand the 
problem.
