While I was at Cisco, for example, I know that we provided audio and video bridges to IEFT meetings to facilitate remote attendance at the meetings. Cisco dedicated several engineers to ensure that the audio and video quality remained good during the meetings and were able to use facilities cisco normally used for things like WebEx and MeetingPlace. With a global presence and infrastructure, they were able to pull it off. I'm not aware of similar resources within the project. I'm not suggesting we need anything at the full WebEx audio/video/presentation/chat level. And apparently the Foundation has money to spend on dev summits. As I suggested in a previous message, this would be a good long-term investment that would benefit a lot of people, especially in comparison to the money set aside for travel grants which is now going begging.
