Two points:
- The check box says "without IETF’s prior written consent"
  so perhaps the IETF would care to grant that wholesale
  and now.
- Does this mean that audio streaming will no longer happen?
   If so, I really (really, really) hope that Webex is going to let me
   join multiple simultaneous meetings so that I can easily skip in
   and out of the audio when I have an agenda clash. (I do also 
   wonder, in this case, how we support people with platforms 
   that can't run Webex in any of its forms.)

Best,
Adrian
