an awful lot of stuff about IETF 'now' can be covered off by 'its not your grand-dads IETF'

A Comrade (he might not thank me for it so he shall remain nameless) spoke up in a meeting I was in about succession planning. IETF needs succession planning. 

Part of succession planning is bringing new, younger blood in, and if that means BoFs with more tire kickers and more people, and more questions which old timers think are silly, then thats the price you pay for HAVING a succession plan.

so, I am a big +1 on this.

We need more blood. IETF vampires vant your young blood...
