[nabs-l] streaming convention

[Ignasi Cambra]

I agree.. If I remember correctly, Kirt only wants to show to his friends that there is some debate going on in the federation, and that's why he figured that he would let them listen to the recording if there is one. Making all these friends go to convention only for this is…well…unnecessary? He wants to show them something. They are not dying to go to convention...
