I'm not entirely certain that people outside of Europe necessarily were aware that the in-person meeting was going to be cancelled, or at least that a decision/announcement to cancel it would be made this far in advance. I agree that cancellation, even seven months before the scheduled meeting, is an appropriate decision.
I too am a bit disappointed that there doesn't appear to be any planning for some sort of virtual meeting, though. It will definitely affect strategy implementation.
