[EMAIL PROTECTED] Guerilla Party Events for Wednesday
**Euro Sticker Day**
Euro stickers are those lovely country labels you
see on autos whilst visiting our European friends
as opposed to the rectangular car art we have in
the States slamming or promoting a political
candidate of choice. W 04 anyone? Today, you
can join IETF Country with your very own
Euro-style sticker that says: IETF, Internet
Engineering Task Force, 20 years of rough
consensus and running code. Wondering what to do
about that little dent on your car? Now you have
the answer. Wondering what to stick on your
computer to cover up that company logo? Again,
you have the answer. Pick up your sticker at the
[EMAIL PROTECTED] table. I will remind you that these are
first-come, first-served and will be placed on
the table at random times during the day. Be kind and allocate fairly.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Gone Wild**
Observe the IETF65 A-listers today at the [EMAIL PROTECTED]
table. Video shot on Monday will be available for
your viewing complete with grey beards and Bert.
For the folks that arent onsite, well be
archiving the video on the web in a week or two.
Crack a brew and watch on your monitor.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Trivia**
Visit todays trivia event at
http://ietf20.isoc.org/trivia/. Take a minute or
two to test your knowledge of the IETF and get a
chance to be one of 20 lucky people each day to
receive a bag filled with [EMAIL PROTECTED] goodies.
For today's (Wednesdays) drawing, we will select
the first submitter, 10 random names and the 9
last submitters from all entries. Ahhh, procrastination, aint it grand?
If you were a winner for Tuesdays event, you
should have received an email from me telling you
so. Pick up your prize during the course of the
IETF65 meeting in the ISOC office. Office hours
will be posted with the winners list on the
[EMAIL PROTECTED] table. The ISOC office is at the Opal
Room on Tower lobby floor across from Business Center.
**Stories of the IETF**
Help us celebrate the [EMAIL PROTECTED] by sharing your
favorite story or stories from your IETF
experiences over the last 20 years. Tell us about
a memorable experience at the IETF funny,
momentous, notorious, life changing, etc. CIDR
versus TUBA. SNMP fun of the early 90s. The
striptease. The genesis of OBE. Your first
meeting. Everyones got a favorite story.
This is our chance to collectively illustrate the
culture and successes of the IETF. Lets document
our own little bit of history, okay?
Submit your story in plain text at
http://ietf20.isoc.org. Hate writing? Send us a
video or an audio file (but verify in advance at
[EMAIL PROTECTED]). Were collecting submissions
and publishing them on the web. Well also be
publishing a printed book comprising some of the
stories that best illustrate the breadth and
depth of IETF culture and activities.
The stories will be accepted throughout
2006. ISOC is sponsoring this because it should.
**Miscellany**
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Guerilla Partying is sponsored by ISOC
for IETF65. This is for amusement. None of your
registration fees were used to support these
activities. No insects were harmed during the
planning process. Yes, there will be different
activities each day. And, if you dont want to
pay attention to the [EMAIL PROTECTED] stuff because it
makes you feel too fun or you are busy trying to
convince people that the weather in Minneapolis
is a darn sight better than Dallas in March, delete these messages.
**Tuesdays Trivia**
1. One IETF attendee appeared on more than a
dozen IETF name badges at the Stanford IETF -- name him or her.
Milo Medin. I have no idea why.
2. Which IETF area no longer exists?
User Services. April and team, we miss you.
3. For some of us, getting bombed had a different
meaning. Up until about 2 years ago, this game
was the semi-official game of the IETF. Name it.
Nuclear War. Get your own deck at http://www.flyingbuffalo.com/nucwar.htm
4. The first IETF t-shirt was designed and printed at what IETF meeting?
Hawaii -- Nerds in Paradise. It was pink and
everything and I vaguely remember flamingos. Wish I had one.
5. Dave Clark once said of an IETF meeting: 'It
was the kind of meeting where the blood on the
floor came from biting your tongue.' True or false?
True. Scary, eh?
**Die-Hard Attendees >50 Meetings**
This list is still growing. I did like the
suggestion from Carsten Bormann who said:
Actually, I'd propose an IETF pain index, which
is: sum of squares of the number of time zones
between place of work and place of IETF meetings attended.
Heres the Die-Hards as of Tuesday night:
Ole Jacobsen (58)
Scott Brim (55)
Ross Callan
Vince Fuller
Tony Hain (51)
Bob Hinden
Allison Mankin
Matt Mathis
Keith McCloghrie
Yakov Rekhter
Mike St. Johns (60+)
Jeff Schiller
Lixia Zhang
But remember this: the IETF's work is the sum of
the whole -- each of the thousands of volunteers
that contributed in the past 20 years has left
their mark. You can make a difference in just one meeting!
