Hi Arun,

Thank you for your kind words.

For the previous pre-FOSDEM Guix Days 2020 back in Feb., we discussed to
stream part of the event.  On one hand, for the exact same reasons you
explain; on the other hand, streaming could reduce the interactivity or
mitigate the impulse for the attendees to take the floor.  At the end,
technical details spoke by themselves.

I do not know when (or if) physical events such as pre-FOSDEM Guix Days
will happen in the near future.  For sure, the historical place in
Brussels where these pre-FOSDEM Guix Days are organized does not have a
network able to support streaming.

Since this historical place would not change* “soon”, first because we
like it (I speak for myself) and second because it is accommodating,
ideas to deal with poor network are welcome. :-)

Personally, I am lacking imagination for that but I am sure that Guixers
around will find a neat hack to fix it. :-)


All the best,
simon


*change: I have never been part of the organizing team, but that’s my
 feelings.
