<p>I suspect that the situation will be completely different in two
month. Far worse.<br>
<br>
I've been participating in ICANN-67 (Virtual) and although not
perfect - the job is getting done extremely well so far. Zoom
seems to be working very well. So far - the biggest meeting I have
personally experienced has been 187 or so people (ALAC - DoH &
DoT discussions - yesterday evening). My biggest issue is every
meeting time is in Cancún, Quintana Roo, Mexico [UTC-5] - local
time. The Meetings have a virtual day in that time zone from about
10:00 to 17:00. Despite adding that time zone to my Mobile - it
would have been easier I think to simply use UCT/GMT times.</p>
<p>If we do run this as a Remote Only meeting - can we please use
CAT - <b>Central African</b> Time. That way - people are either
+2 (Mauritius) or -2 (Nigeria) hours from CAT (not sure if anyone
works on -3 CAT/-1 GMT ?) ... and to perhaps run meetings from
10:00 CAT to no later than 18:00 CAT.<br>
<br>
I think this would also end up saving a small fortune in Hotel
room bills & flights - etc.</p>

Good point Andrew - although we don’t have to panic yet about it,
it’s always good to have a plan B just in case.
