Re: [113attendees] hybrid meetings: the worst of both worlds

[NA-NiC <[e-mail]>]

Antoine,

I came there to listen, and sat in a number of different tracks in addition to DNSOP which is where my interest lies, and agree with every point you made.

Many presentations were incredibly detailed, with very busy and sometime impossible to read slides, quite long with very little time for debate. While not everybody has good verbal presentation skills, maybe this is something to look at. Kawasaki’s 10-20-30(20) rule comes to mind.

And almost on every single presentation there was an issue with screen sharing in the beginning, which decreased in amusement value quickly over the days.

The chair microphones were in most rooms not loud enough to understand at the back of the rooms, the remote audio was great.

I did like the IETFer App, but would have liked to be able to check in to the Blue Sheet from the App  instead of just the QR.
