It should be RFID, cheaper, and easier, not only for the blue sheets.
The badge could be pre-configured with the data from our own IETF registration.
The badge will store the names of the people who we have been talking during
the week, and data like when, how much time, .... We can then use an

Someone can complain about privacy issues, but I feel that is the same now
when the blue sheet is circulated, or the attendance list is in the web site,
right ?
It will save a lot of time (money) to all of us, including the IETF
secretariat.
