Re: Remote participation at TTWF Seoul?

Hi Bryan,

Thank you very much for suggesting this and offering to help.
I've forwarded it to one of the organisers to hopefully make it a
reality. There's also due to be a link-up with a smaller TTWF meetup in
Tokyo at the same time, so I wondered whether we could put both remote
groups in a single call, e.g. with something like https://appear.in

Anyway, I'll wait to hear back from the organisers.

With regards,
Daniel
