Sounds cool, but I haven't been able to follow a remote multiparty  
meeting successfully for a long time. So the only way to eliminate f2f  
is to eliminate real-time entirely and work strictly from email/wiki/ 
other asynch tools.

And frankly, judging consensus on-list is a lot tricker than in a  
room. On-list, I seldom get more then 6 responses to even the most  
critical poll. While one might question how many responses in a room  
are "informed", it is still at least 3x higher.
