That's a really good point. In the post-conference conversations that deal with attendance policy, this should be kept in mind. In lieu of not being able to attend in person, keep in mind the live-casting that will be done, in combination with IRC channels. When I led tracks at Ubuntu Developer Summits, we were able to keep remote attendees closely in the loop. As non-optimal as this may be, we can still work hard to get the best out of it. I'm not sure it the Design Summit will be projecting IRC chat on a screen for each session (like is done at UDS); at the very least, I can make sure I'm on Freenode and can act as a proxy -- ensuring any questions or concerns from IRC get audibly voiced and become part of the conversation. I will be attending all of the DevOps (and related) sessions, as long as they don't conflict.
