For the WG that I am active in (that I attend the virtual interims), if I were to fairly count, I would count only the people who said something at the MIC, and/or posted something to the list. There are perhaps 3 to 5 people who come to the meeting because they are already there who do not show up to the virtual interims. The total number of people who are really active is less than 20. > Perhaps more appropriately: is there an identifiable group of people > who participate in the regular meetings but can’t manage to join in the > interims? I believe that there are some people who do never participate in the interims, but I would say it's because they are more "monitoring" the WG, than participating. If anything, the opposite is true: people who attend the virtual interims regularly, but haven't travel funds. > We’ve all heard (and said) at regular meetings: “this is the sense of > the room, we’ll take it to the list” Then this gets posted to the > list.

At least, that has been my experience. Consider HOMENET: a 2 day virtual interim meeting in 2010 finished with a solid idea about architecture and protocol, and nearly every single decision that the group took was picked over *at length* over 5 years, often festering forever. -- Michael Richardson <mcr+IETF@sandelman.ca>, Sandelman Software Works -= IPv6 IoT consulting =-
