I don't think what I'm suggesting is a change, but a clarification.
The intent of the current three-of-five policy is in-person
attendance, and there was no need to say that when that was the only
way to attend.  While I fully think that we should change that and
include remote participants for eligibility, this document is
addressing the current rules, which don't include them.

I strongly hope that we change that soon.  But I do think it's
important to get this document out there now, to finish the necessary
IASA2 documentation.
