Warren, and everybody, The material at https://www.ietf.org/about/participate/get-started/ is only as good as we make it. If you think it could be improved, don't say it here, send concrete suggestions to the appropriate place (now support@ietf.org, I think).

It's much much less scary to participate if you have at least some vague idea how the system works. Even "silly" things like dress code (doesn't really apply any more), what the dots mean, what a blue sheet is, etc. Knowing some of this stuff makes people feel more like insiders, instead of wondering why people keep humming, or shouting "Mike!!!" > > And the problem of participants not being well-prepared isn't at all limited to newcomers to IETF. > > > Indeed. As with any group, we have our own "culture" and clique - we have tried to make it easier for people to come in (see the Tao, Scott Bradner's Newcomer videos, Edu team, Mentors, etc). We've done more than some other groups I can think of, but it can still be intimidating. > > W > > > > Keith > > > > > > -- > The computing scientist’s main challenge is not to get confused by the > complexities of his own making. > -- E.
