I'm working on a companion to draft-ietf-problem-issue-statement-00.txt,
which
instead of focusing on the problems of the IETF, celebrates and attempts to
preserve what is positive and is working about the IETF. We need to ensure
that as we attempt to identify problems that we also identify which things
we wish to keep.
I was asked to start on this document at the IESG Open Plenary in San
Francisco
Wednesday night, and I'd like to create at least a solid outline of a
document
by Friday morning's Problem Statement WG session at 9am. So if you can
please
email me a short email answering at least one of these questions, it would
help
me very much. A short paragraph on just one is all I ask!
* What is "Best" about the IETF?
* What do I get out of the IETF that is the most valuable to me?
* What "ideals" does the IETF attempt to exemplify that I'd like not to
be
lost?
* What excites me about participating in the IETF?
* What makes IETF better then other standards organizations?
* What part of the IETF "process" do I feel is the key to why the IETF
works?
* What one "story" from my experience with the IETF exemplifies what is
best
about the IETF?
Please email me at ChristopherA(_at_)AlacrityManagement(_dot_)com with your
answers,
and I
will send the summary to the problem-statement(_at_)alvestrand(_dot_)no
discussion list
for further discussion.
Thank you!
