As someone who has done remote attendance, and is presently catching up on
IETF104 sessions where I had conflicts via youtube, I want to ask:

   Is our desire to support remote attendance causing us to render the
   meeting week un-productive?  If the answer to that lack of productivity
   is (in-person) interim meetings that don't have remote attendance, then
   did we really gain?

Note that watching the "dead" feed on youtube doesn't keep me from
interacting.  I hit pause, write an email, and then resume.

If I'm more courteous, I avoid hitting send until I finish watching, because
maybe my question gets answered :-)

This is actually potentially way better, because I'm taking the conversation
back to the list (where it belongs)
