A virtual VR-SIG meeting on-line would be quite interesting.
The exact venue will require a fair bit of coordination.
The LA-VRSIG meetings generally use a direct connection videophone to
the other site(s), with some meetings being accompanied by CU-SeeMe cybercast.

Perhaps we can arrange something in concert with the Electronic Cafe
International
and all their various sites around the world. That would give some geographic
locations for people to come to. For the geographically impaired, we could have
a CU-SeeMe and/or an IRC hookup. For the Internet impaired, we might have
hookups for CompuServe, AOL, and other commercial service chat areas.
