Steve, normally I am open to experimenting and trying new things at events I organise but as there is a motion to put together a working party I am reluctant to go ahead and do my own thing at the January event before the working party has had a chance to consider things. For the January event there is also the question of resources at the congress venue.
To get back to the topic, if the motion is passed, I would be happy to experiment with this at an event later in the year, once a working party has had a chance to consider the subject and make recommendations on how such remote particpation would work within any rules that would need to be set.
I would think that any working party would need a variety of people who had the skills and knowledge to come up with a workable system.
It really is an interesting concept. I am certainly interested with trying to work out how to implement this
