I know the resources are thin, but unless the inevitable surge of virtual meetings is inclusive insofar as accessibility is concerned (let's not call it "video conferencing" please), we will have missed a huge opportunity. To retrofit the current spate of "distance learning" undertakings is going to be a nightmare and for that to be needed in the case of the "airline substitution system" will be tragic. An important W3C undertaking is to have some positions on the nature of these systems and to provide leadership in *doing* something about them instead of merely *saying* how great it will be some day. -- Love.
