There are times when I hunger for IETF chat rooms in between IETF
meetings. Some mailing list discussions suffer from latency + piling
on. I understand that IM chat rooms would often suffer from lack of
attendance, but a sort of interim meeting could get called on IM much
more often than physical interim meetings, and might help resolve
disagreements / reach consensus more quickly and with less effort than
e-mail (consensus would still have to be confirmed on-list, of
course).
Yes, the wg meeting rooms are always available.
If you want to use them for a more formal wg session then that's
a virtual interim. [1] We used that (just jabber, no voice) for
DKIM a few years ago and it worked ok. Other WGs also make use
of voice calls in parallel.
Cheers,
S.
