Does "the proven standard method" have to mean a proprietary 
implementation?  The (LS)3 team are far *more* fastidious about 
standards compliance than proprietary vendors tend to be.  In Athens, 
only Microsoft Windows users were able to access the webcasting stream. 
  For the latest consultation, it was accessible on all major OS 
platforms using standards-compliant client software.

Even so the (LS)3 team hope to do better next time, and to this end have 
indicated they intend to join the Online Collaboration Dynamic Coalition 
to work more closely together with others working on remote 
participation, to help us out and enlist our help, and to share ideas 
ahead of the next IGF consultation or meeting.
