Personally I've only been on a single physical IETF meeting. I participate
mainly via mailing lists.
And yes, it's hard to participate without spending (significant) time. I
don't know how else this could be done though. It's at least my opinion
that if time is made available, the barrier of entry is probably the
lowest of any similar organisation I can think of.
