Abstract
A method and apparatus for recovering missing teleconference object data during an electronic conference starts with a second participant being assigned to provide requested teleconference object data to a first participant. The first participant later determines that the second participant is unavailable. The first participant broadcasts a message to the plurality of participants to determine if another participant has the requested teleconference object data. A third participant replies to the first participant if it has the requested teleconference object data. The first participant assigns the third participant to provide the requested teleconference object data to the first participant.
