So I'm offering to build an online version of the blue sheets so in
the future, it will be easy to determine which wgs attract the same
people and overlap can be avoided more effectively.


    as someone who has been the victim of contact/email
    harvesting off the "analog" blue sheets, i'll point out
    that when i attend an ietf, i -never- sign them anymore.

By whom ? At the meeting ? They are never exposed to the public.

        er... yes at the meeting, by folks sitting in the 
        seats.  since IETF mtgs are not closed, i think of
        them as open to the public and therefore exposed.
        it kind of helped when the press folks were given
        special name tags, but in a room w/ 50-100 people,
        it was tough to know who was holding on to the sheet
        and transcribing off it.  (not to pick on the press
        per se about email harvesting - they are more likely
        to fabricate a sensational report w/o getting the speakers
        permission - but the effect is similar.  these mtgs
        are public.)
