Re: Events without a physical location

Hi Chaals,  team -

I concur with the need to have a general term for  location-agnostic,
 "distributedEvent" - and not to go beyond that to anything specific.

Such a gernal term would apply and online events of any kind (for both work
and play), including Teleconferences,  Webinars,  Collaborative
coding, onlineGames, etc.


+1  for keeping things simple and general
