I love them but let me be honest, West coast US events don't work for me or many others and focusing on an online event opens it up to far more people.

However I see the benefit for having a local audience for those who can make it there but we are still a year off before travel resumes to normal levels if not 2023. However being such world wide company perhaps they will in the future have similar events or simultaneous events across the world.

It would be cool to have satellite mini-conferences around the world for the purpose of getting devs access to Apple engineers. It could be an adjunct to the formal online presentations that we all see.

How about just getting engineers to occasionally participate on their own developer forums, and settle some of the edge questions that have been waiting for answers for years.
