And that didn't seem to matter. I did report why I thought the program was failing, quite a few times, and also provided suggestions. -- but no changes. Looked like the goal was having a program, in itself, rather than having a program to achieve a goal.

There are lots of aspects involved. * Selection: Granting a fellowship to people who don't have a clue about the IETF, and didn't bother to have it, is a non-starter. At the very least, there should be proven technical participation. * Clear expectations out of the program: There didn't use to be any, other than "sharing the experience with your community". * Sustained support Supporting people to attend *one* meeting every now and then, when they have no chance to support their ongoing participation over time will not help much of a difference. * Support such people in building a community If the program finds people that is capable, support them in further building their communities. -- this can indirectly support their own IETF work. * Don't aim to create evangelizers, but rather support local engineers that can help evangelize via their IETF work. And: If you want to help a community, rather than tell them what you think they need, ask them how they think you can help them.
