I don't have any objection to that rule.  I was one of the people who suggested
the "author must be present" rule.  I got tired of flying my ass half-way around
the world to end up sitting across a table from someone who can't find the "take
back" command, because the real author is "too busy" or "too important" to
attend.

The event is much less fun for everyone if principle authors don't show up.
