Ted,
Thanks.
Perhaps then Olafur recommendation:
"must have attended at least 5 meetings of the last 15 and including one of the
last 5".
may be a good compromise. Also, I would suggest "one of the last 6"
(instead of 5). I guess in two years the IETF does not change too much.
Regards,
as

What is the rationale of the requirement to attend psychically to
meetings?
Acculturation: the opportunity over time to absorb the IETF culture and
become a part of it. The other points you raised are valid, but this is the
main thing.
I think acculturation is possible for remote attendees in theory, but not
with the current level of support for off-site participation—while what we
have is great for helping people to participate in selected working group
meetings, it doesn't provide anything like the experience of an on-site
participant.
