> Hi,
> 
> based on the feedback received on the proposal to move the IETF 112
> plenary to the week before the meeting [1], the IESG has decided to go
> ahead with the experiment.  We did receive some feedback indicating
> that the proposed experiment is problematic in certain ways for some
> individuals, but feel that actually running the experiment is still
> appropriate, in order to get data about how it affects the overall
> community.
> 
> The IETF 112 plenary will hence already be scheduled on Wednesday, 3
> November 2021, in the time slot of 13:30-15:00 UTC, or 14:30-16:00
> Madrid time. At notable extremes, this begins at 06:30 in San Francisco
> and ends at 02:00 in Sydney, with some of the less popular hours over
> the Pacific.
> 
> The IESG will evaluate the success of this experiment based on the
> following criteria after its conclusion, in consultation with the
> community:
> 
> * An improvement in survey responses reporting session conflicts
>  compared to previous IETF online meetings
> 
> * Positive response to a new survey question about subjective
>  satisfaction with the format change
> 
> * Elimination of a ninth track, and a reduction in formal conflicts in
>  the final agenda compared to previous online meetings
> 
> * Little or no reduction in plenary attendance (< 15%) compared to other
>  online plenaries in European time zones (i.e., IETFs 108 and 110)
> 
> * The subjective experience of the IESG and Secretariat in attempting to
>  minimize conflicts during IETF 112
> 
> Not all of these metrics must show improvement for the experiment to be
> considered a success, neither does a regression in any of necessarily
> indicate failure. The relative weights of these considerations are a
> subject for IESG the follow-up discussion and community consultation.
