Yes, that had also occurred to me. :)
It does cost money though... if even for just additional equipment, tech
support and administration, and a separate presentation screen in the rooms.
And it's one more thing for the folks who run the meetings to worry about, plan
for, deal with, etc. - and that's a real cost too. As far as I can tell it's
not the up-front capex costs of a technology that really matter much, it's the
recurring opex costs.

The next step up from our current jabber-scribe model is to have audio input
- the ability for remote participants to speak using their own voice, when
it's their turn at the 'mic'. The next step up after that is video input,
where remote participants can be seen as well as heard. Both of those are
technically achievable, and possibly even practical to implement - though
that's something the folks who run and manage the meetings would have to
decide, since they'd know a lot more than us about that.
