Re: IETF Challenges

The day after your post I read that
"
The 2012-2013 IETF nomination process has not yet filled the Transport
Area Director position despite several attempts to broaden the pool of
nominees. "

which to me sums it up.  ADs are the critical resource, on the critical
path in project management terms, and this other post reflects that
challenge.

How can the load on ADs be reduced?  Can technology be leveraged to
increase their productivity? and suchlike.  This I see as the real
challenge.

In my new role, I thought it would be useful to start a discussion about
the challenges we are facing,
and call for input on things that the IETF community feels should be
addressed.

Here are my initial thoughts:
http://www.ietf.org/blog/2013/03/ietf-challenges/

But please tell your thoughts. Is there something that bothers you in
the IETF process, meetings,
support systems, is there something that we should improve? Which of
these issues do you think
the leadership should take a priority in addressing first? And what
technical challenges do you
see us  addressing in the coming years?
