     Dear colleagues:
          I hope all is well with you.  It is my understanding that
     several
     representatives will participate in the conference via electronic
     means.  Because of this, I anticipate the meeting sessions will be
     structured to allow for the possibility of problems with audio/video
     quality.  In particular, I suspect the voting procedures will allow
     for
     the possibility of such problems.
          Hence, I anticipate that I shall be able to participate
     effectively
     via remote means.  Of course, in an important sense one never knows
     how
     well remote participation in a conference will proceed until the
     conference begins.
          If I am unable to participate effectively via remote means, I
     consider it likely that other representatives will have similar
     problems.  If many of the remotely participating representatives
     experience difficulties, I suspect those physically present will
     have to
     find ways to accommodate those who are not present. Otherwise, the
     organization may face the prospect of making major decisions without
     the
     input of many of its constituent parties.
          As always, thanks for your work for liberty.  Again, I hope my
     comments are helpful to you.
          Take care,
          Jim
