Spencer,
Thanks for all your scribe contributions. They add real value to the
process.
The wireless has been fantastic. A great job by Nokia and our intrepid
volunteers.
This meeting Jabber services were provided by NeuStar Secretariat
Services pursuant to the SOW. Much thanks to Peter Saint Andre and
others who made that happen in the past. Their efforts demonstrated the
indespensible value to the process.

At the beginning of our Jabber "experiment" several years ago, I
volunteered to Jabber-scribe exactly once, fell off the network five
minutes into a working group meeting, spent ten minutes trying to get
hooked back up, gave up, and never volunteered again until this IETF.
I never felt like that was the wrong decision (I always volunteered to
scribe, just never on Jabber). At some meetings, the network was
reliable enough to make me wonder, but all I did was wonder - not
volunteer to Jabber-scribe, and if things didn't work on Monday
morning of the following meeting, I stopped wondering.
I Jabber-scribed for several sessions here, and never had a problem.
Just to mention a minor point - having reliable wireless is critical
for remote participants (yes, they can listen to the audio stream, but
without someone at least monitoring Jabber for questions, all they can
do is send e-mail to the list, where it will be read the next time
local participants DO have working wireless.
Thank you, NOC team, especially on behalf of remote participants.
And, to mention the other point - at this meeting I was asked to
Jabber-scribe by several chairs who had already found scribes before
the meeting started - thank you guys (and gals) for being on the ball
here, too!
Spencer
I agree. I never got around to buying an 802.11a NIC card, but
I never really felt like I needed it here.
The worst it got was that in some of the full rooms my Mac
would drop the link once or twice in an hour, and have to be manually
reconnected to the network.
And, I noticed a singular lack of computer to computer ad hoc networks.
My profound thanks to everyone who worked on this.
