I propose moving IETF to pure-virtual*asynchronous* meetings as follows: 1) let each speaker give a time-bound virtual presentation including both “slides" and “facetime”, whereby “slides” may include other forms of screen share (e.g., to show a demo), and “facetime” is a videobox showing the presenter talking throughout the presentation (note that this is purposely audio+video, as opposed to audio-only, so as to help people to get to “know” the presenter).
IMO expecting people to record video in order to air their views is an Extremely Bad Idea, one which would marginalize everyone who doesn't have the time/energy/facilities to produce good video.
(IMO expecting people to post Internet-Drafts in xmlrfc format is already too much burden. Expecting video would be far worse than that.)
And it doesn't really matter if the expectation isn't a formal requirement, if it turns out to be necessary in practice.
