[governance] Remote Participation

[Imran Ahmed Shah]

There are at least two types of the Remote Participants:
1. Just Observers and Audience (will listen/ view or vote) 
2. Attendees (who are invited to attend meeting to complete the quorum) like Members of Panel/ MAG/ Speakers/ Presenters. (Two-way)

First Category at least require one way service.

Second category must require both way communication and pre allocated time slots for live and interactive discussion for active participation.
 
Our report should be concise, short, to the point and as much comprehensive to address all the points or concerns discussed among us. 

Thanks 

Imran
