Yet, 2 of them living at the oposite coast of US. So, even for they, a long trip (5 hours of time fuse). All the others there came from other continents: Europe, South America, Asia. On most cases, people took 2 days to arrive there, and 2 other days to return back home, for a 2,5 day meeting. Some of them even payed the expenses from their own pockets. We all suffered a lot from Jet Leg effects, geting 5 or more hours of difference at the time fuse. We all now have a big list of pending work that accumulated due to the 1 week spent with the trips. People woudln't do at all such big efforts just to say: "me too", or to do some sort of political arrangement. If there was a previous decision, it would be a way easy to announce it via email. People went there because: - They want a better future for video input infrastructure; - They think that people make difference; - They want to solve pending things; - They believe that being together is the way for fixing social issues at the community. So, all people there put a lot of resources for what they believe it is the right way to do. Please respect. I understand that you are unhappy with the results of the vote, but it was a fair decision.
