Hi Peter,

Our intent is to provide an online stream of the conference, along with facilities to interact with others at the conference, similar to the platform we used for the online conferences. We have used online question mechanisms a couple of times now, both online and at past in person events, and we are looking to do similar this time. We are still working through all of the logistics of this, and will have more to say closer to ticket sales opening.

Kind regards,
Joel

Realtime voice questions are mostly trash noise as few people maintain a sound booth for voice interaction. Realtime text questions through the right software work as the presenter can organise questions to fit the presentation and group similar questions.
