   Not meaning to contradict, but Russ Housley has committed to make
the Stockholm IETF week "remote-participation friendly". I do believe
he is hoping from some assistance from us.

   A noble goal, according to my bank account! ;^)

   (Do note, however, that the Secretariat is signing contracts for
2013...)

   Absolutely!

   I wasn't thinking of a "deadline" -- more a "milestone".

   Of course, if we're _really_ thinking "after 2013," we can afford
to concentrate more on open-standard tools than on currently-marketed
proprietary tools...

   Maybe we need to "formalize" some informal goals / milestones?
