There isn't a reason for singling out Asia in: 2.5
6. Scheduling across time zones could be an issue, especially if time zone of meeting is Asia. Can remote hubs use recordings and watch together to address time zone differences.
No matter which 3rd of the world the meeting is in, part of the meeting day overlaps the Midnight to 6 AM hours in one of the other 2.
Watching a recording instead of being on line real time removes the ability to interact and give input to the meeting. That works for some goals of attending (e.g. observing the work or keeping up with what is going on when one can't attend in person).

All,
We have written a summary of the current thinking on Remote IETF hubs as well as what has been done in Latin America. There is also quite a bit of activity in India with remote hubs.
They will be posting a draft soon.
We wrote these to serve as community memory and to serve as a starting point for discussion. As our knowledge of how to do remote hubs increases, we will update the drafts.
Please view:
