Re: Audio streaming and slides suggestion

["Spencer Dawkins" <spencer at mcsr-labs.org>]

I may have misunderstood the discussion to this point, but I thought what 
was being discussed was the idea that IFF you were planning to give a 
powerpoint presentation (and, not coincidentally, give a verbal presentation 
that makes no sense without slides for context), you have to hand over the 
slides first, so that remote participants had a prayer of actually 
participating remotely.

I like that suggestion. I agree with Geoff that requiring powerpoint in 
order to occupy WG meeting space and time is not a good thing.
