Gordon, Thank you for starting this. The virtual meeting was extremely well organised. It could hardly have been better. But it is far from the same as meeting in person. I miss the applause. I miss the non-verbal interaction. I miss the meetings in the hallways and in the bar. Some discussions during this meeting were less than optimal due to the lack the moderation of such venues and the opportunity to really look each other in the face while discussing. Really meeting each other is a big part of keeping community spirit and coherence. I have learnt much much less than I usually do during meetings. Do not get me started about how physical distance makes the work of the NomCom more difficult. We need regular physical meetings for a plethora of reasons. So we should be careful with steps that give the bean counters opportunities to create facts for us. Daniel
