But, I agree it is a good idea. I just learned something else about this that, in retrospect, should be no surprise but may tell us something about ways to think about this. I got on it more or less to look around (stimulating my earlier note) but, just as a was about to sign off, had Joel start a conversation which was interesting and helpful. But the reality is that all of us know each other: Joel (both of them), and Kathleen, Ben, Victor, and I have all had enough conversations over the years (even though I don't think I've met the latter two f2f) that, given a bit of motivation reaching out and talking with each other is rather easy. The interesting part, however, is that the conversation Joel and I were having was joined by a newcomer to the IETF who didn't know either of us or our work. Led to a very interesting conversation and, for me, the most fun I've had this week... and maybe some useful advice and contacts for him in finding work of interest in the IETF. I think the regular chat session windows are a good idea but I also see a great deal of potential for what would amount to a periodic equivalent to a newcomer's meet and greet session, maybe even encouraging people to connect and start conversations who would be too shy to approach one of us current or former AD types in a physical hallway. john
