Excellent idea, and I have often wondered why it hasn't been put into effect
long before now. We have everything needed, from Big Blue Button to Jami, to
place it into effect, constituents spread over such a wide geographical area
with the need, yet it has remained unemployed.

There is still a need for F2F functions, but for a mechanism to promote and
maintain community, we have it available, but it remains idle.
I'm often away overseas, border controls permitting, but count me in.
Kind regards,
