That is something I think we need to keep in mind when people speak of inclusion as some shining goal that is attainable if we just do something different (smile, mentor a newcomer, stop using "master" in RFCs, etc). > We want to resume it > with a selection process that finds people who can benefit from IETF > meetings and are likely to be ongoing IETF contributors. You're saying that we need to be more *discriminating* in who we decide to help meet our goals of inclusion. Yes, I agree. The thing is, participation in the IETF is voluntary and depends on interest by the volunteer. So we, as an institution, are at a disadvantage in having much say in dictating who shows up in the end. There's only so much we can do to actually change the makeup of those who voluntarily choose to take part especially when we're drawing from pools of potential volunteers that are not very diverse (by almost any way you want to look at it-- gender, geographical origin, race, professional affiliation, political temperament, etc) to begin with. I advocated for my company to help create a scholarship in a STEM field at a HBCU here in the states. You can do that too, or something similar modulo your particular circumstance. It won't end up paying dividends until after I've stopped attending but it's gonna do more to achieve the ultimate goal than stopping the use of the word "master" in an RFC. regards, Dan. -- "The object of life is not to be on the side of the majority, but to escape finding oneself in the ranks of the insane." -- Marcus Aurelius
