I don't think it's necessarily a fair assumption that if you can't be there, it's because you don't care.
I would /love/ to be there, but even with the travel program, as a contract employee/consultant, the cost of travel isn't my main consideration - the loss of income, as the only vacation time I get is unpaid. There's not just a financial cost, but an opportunity cost - and as much as I support the project, paying the bills has to be my top priority. :)
There needs to be an alternative for those who do care but can't attend an in-person event in order to get their input involved.
Even a Google Hangout scheduled, or some time set aside on the IRC project channel would help get input from those who want to be involved.
