I think assuming the July IETF will not take place in physical group
meeting form has multiple advantages: operating under the assumption
that it will not take place will satisfy both the formulation of a
proper contingency plan, and a much needed reconsideration of how it is
that we meet and work towards our purpose.

In some ways I look forward to an in-depth exploration of what it means
to really only use the Internet to build the Internet. :-)

Kind regards,
