I suspect that organizers simply stopped thinking about them after a while because of poor interest.  There is no conspiracy of exclusion here, just simple human apathy.

	The "Watson/Losh connection" worked really well in BSDCan 2010 :).
	Advertising the teleconferencing lines might be an issue (I would have loved to have joined in some of the remote conferences, if for nothing more than be a fly on the wall, this year), but that's a separate thing aside.
	There's some misunderstanding, assumption, etc mixed together in this mailing chain that I think is probably better resolved with some face-to-face conversations or maybe just more rational (and less heated) discussion.
Thanks!
