I have no problem with the above suggestion, and I envision that this may be the norm going forward. What is still missing is the interactions of the hallway track and the evening events. I was thinking about how we could get the remote folks in on what happened there right afterward, which is why I'm suggesting breakout rooms like Laurent suggested as well, but at the end of the conference, and perhaps the conversations of the previous night could continue with a remote presence. -- Steve
