[governance] remote particpation

[Izumi AIZU]

Thanks Avri for all of your thoughtful comment,

As a technical unsophisticated person, I really hope that
any technology used for the next Rio meeting for remote two-way
participation will not take too much burden on the end-user side
at the last minute.  I mean, as much as possible, please use the
proven standard method for the remote participation.

Thanks a lot!
