Great idea!

I see that in budget for 2011 year scheduled expenditure:

RIPE meeting - 875 kEUR
Training Courses - 383 kEUR
Regional Meetings - 263 kEUR,

Summary meeting cost: 1521kEUR.

Now we have the following situation: each LIR pays defined cost for all of
meetings which are being hold during whole year. But actually not every
LIR-representative visits such meetings.
So there is a question: Maybe there is no need to hold such meetings and
trainings while we could run a lot of Webinars. Webinars would not be such
cost-based as real meetings, but could be such useful as them.
