On Wednesday at the IESG plenary, I'm doing a presentation about IETF
financials.
The short and sweet of it is: Unless we change something, our current
funding methods won't pay for our current work.
At the presentation, I'll ask the floor what they think about various ideas
for improving the situation.
But since you all will be better able to give me your thoughtful opinions
after having thought about it for a while, it only makes sense to send out
the presentation first.
I put up the presentation at http://www.alvestrand.no/ietf/march2002/ - in
Powerpoint and PDF formats. It's still going to change before I give the
presentation, but the high points are definitely there.
Your comments are welcome!
