[governance] Re: remote participation

[David Allen]

Confirming Izumi's experience.

Here we started in the middle of the night, slowing emerging to dawn.

When finally the VLC player was identified, at least the stream, so far via Real, ceased to break every 84 seconds, requiring another restart ...  Despite VLC, continuing interruptions put a sense of the meeting outside of the grasp.  So the transcript is the refuge - Nitin Desai has already noted the joys in reading hours of transcript.

So we get to some of the realities that a serious consideration of online participation will engage.
