Having been a remote participant for multiple past IETF meetings, I  
definitely applaud any "experiments" like this that provide more  
methods to include people who cannot travel to the actual meeting.[1]   
I would encourage more such experiments for future meetings including  
such things as streaming video.  As others have noted, there are a  
great number of new services available that make providing these  
services much easier than it has been before.

However, can we *please* put out notice of such experiments with more  
than 30 minutes notice?  It's great that today's plenaries are going  
out through a web collaboration tool, but it's tough to get that  
information out to people without much notice.

Thanks,
Dan

[1]  And MANY thanks to the teams that provide the audio streaming and  
Jabber server as they are a huge benefit to remote participants.
