As would I.

Me too, as long as we get whiteboards or flip-charts in their stead.

What about people at the back of the room who cannot see what you write
on the whiteboard or flip-charts? (at least slides can be downloaded on 
laptop/tablet if too far from the projection screen)

What about people following remotely?

There are some technological solutions, like electronic whiteboards, or 
cameras pointed at whiteboards/flipboards. Frame rate makes no difference.

Work is done through conversation. If we use a presentation, the
conversation is scripted. I, the presenter, say stuff. You, the audience,
can only reply. When we collaborate to develop something at work, we hardly
ever do it with a presentation. Presentations work best for tutorial and
for showing proposals.

What about people who have difficulties understanding the speaker
without some sort of context?

With some speakers, context doesn't help. Slides help bad enunciation.
They usually don't help missing context.

What about being able to understand the problem that will be discussed 
before the session, so to cut on the "thinking out loud" on the 
microphone?

That's what drafts are for.

Do you have a presentation during IETF 87? (I already checked that Randy,
 Keith and Melinda do not).  I would be really interested to see how
this could work.

I have three. I don't get a flip-chart, so I do have slide-sets. There is
one 5-minute thing that I'm going to do with hand-waving and no slides,
but otherwise, I'm doing things the way that people expect them to be.

I can not find your presentations in the agendas.  Please tell me when they
are and I'll rent a flip-chart.

Thanks.
