Nick,
This is an early request for you to add an agenda item at the September LNC
meeting to define procedures for teleconference and video conference
meetings for the LNC and other committees, as required by the recent
amendment to the LP Bylaws.
Also, people should be thinking about the optimum way to implement this, as
well as what the potential problems are and how to best avoid them. If
anyone is aware of how other comparable organizations handle such meetings,
it would be good to build on their experiences.

*"In general, we look for a new law by the following process. First, we
guess it (audience laughter), no, don’t laugh, that’s the truth. Then we
compute the consequences of the guess, to see what, if this is right, if
this law we guess is right, to see what it would imply and then we compare
the computation results to nature or we say compare to experiment or
experience, compare it directly with observations to see if it works. If it
disagrees with experiment, it’s WRONG. In that simple statement is the key
to science. It doesn’t make any difference how beautiful your guess is, it
doesn’t matter how smart you are, who made the guess, or what his name is.
If it disagrees with experiment, it’s wrong. That’s all there is to it.”*
-- Richard Feynman
