This is not the solution.
I'm not going to change the technology that I use because we haven't been able
to setup a good network here. We should learn from the mistakes and do it
better next time, as we know it worked in Vienna.
I use b or g, because is what I carry with me, and I will not accept being
forced to move to a, because we aren't able to fix problem that can be solved,
is not rational ! If the network is a/b/g, then no problem, but not restrict
the support for one or the other. We know b and g work !
The network is important for most of us. I'm not going to attend to more
meeting if the network is not warranted to work, because this is taking a lot
of my time, and I need facilities to do it, not difficulties. The volunteer
effort need some compensation, and we only demand for a stable network. I think
is not too much, specially because we know that can be done.
We have less and less people attending the meeting, and I feel that if we can't
keep going with our obligations (daily work) together with our IETF volunteer
effort, the attendance with drop more and more.
I hope we can solve this problem soon.
Regards,
Jordi

I strongly encourage people to consider bringing 802.11a cards to
future meetings! (Note: Of course, now that I've said that, the future
hosts will decide against deploying it)
If we go for 802.11a, I sugggest that we ask a vendor (or two) to come
with a pile of cards that people can borrow for a few $$ more than the
manufactuiring price, and can return after the meeting, or not.
