Hi Leif,

Thanks for the comprehensive review.  I had some good and bad experiences
both, but in general think it worked "better than I was expecting it to".

One question, in order to figure out what a concrete suggestion I could
take away from your notes:

So in situations where most of the attendees can't attend in person due to
global issues out of our control, are you suggesting we don't hold hybrid
meetings?  What do you think would be a good ratio of in-person to remote
attendance that should be the barrier for deciding whether or not to hold
an on-site meeting?  [we've had remote participation for a long time of
course, but the ratio was far lower]

[note: I have no decision making ability in this area -- I'm just curious]
