All,
If there is a serious drive to discontinue the weekly posting
summary - I strongly object.
I don't think its main benefit is be to stop excessive or of topic
posting. I'm not saying that list managers and list owners should look
at that aspect.
At least for me it serves as a safety net whe

Hi Abdussalam,
The IETF Chair used "AB" as your name in his report during the
plenary. I assume that it is okay for me to call you
"Abdussalam". I should have used "Mr Baryun" as that is how it is
done in some cultures.

While I think getting slides in on time is great for a lot of reasons, reading
the slides early isn't that important. What is important is that remote
people see the slides at the same time as local people. For that, it seems to

Why wouldn't that be sufficient to identify you? Is the head of purchasing

As far as I can tell, one person objects, everyone else thinks it's fine.
Seems like rough consensus to me.

More to the point, the objections that are being raised appear
to be bogus and based in a misunderstanding of how the IETF
operates.

At last week's very successful Berlin meeting, the finances were
thrown of whack by the late discovery that the IETF had to pay 19%
German VAT on the registration fee. At the IAOC session they said
that about half of that is likely to be reclaimed from VAT paid, but
the net amount is still a large
OK, I'll bite. Why do you and Michael believe you need to have the slides 1
week in advance?
You have the agenda and drafts 2 weeks in advance. The slides aren't
normative. Even when they're not about a draft in particular, the slides are
not self-standing documents. They're merely to help

I'm less concerned about having slides than having the issues that need
discussion clear. An agenda of documents and issues tells potential
participants what they need. Slides are needed if and only if there is no
document.

First, I'd like to highlight something that is important. There is no inherent
preference to posting a lot, a moderate amount, or none at all. Everything
depends on context. If you are providing useful input and furthering the
discussion, a lot of mails is ok. And no mails can be a problem, too,

We're all different, and for my purposes, in all honesty, having

been an issue as a remote participant. It's definitely aggravating
as a chair, though, since we need to get those uploaded via the
