Seems to me we need ensure some formality in the experiment if we  
expect to get anything out of it.  Asking everyone to send in notes  
from their experience won't be enough - especially, as some have  
predicted, if many participants get exactly 0% Internet connectivity  
while IPv4 is off.

Some suggestions:

* Explicit documentation of any special preparations
   implemented by the IETF NOC

* Several jabber rooms during the experiment (and archive
   the logs); some suggestions:
   - explicit operational issues: successes, questions, help
   - read-only headlines from IETF NOC
   - general discussion
   - pointers to "places that work"

   Note that there is a chicken-and-egg issue accessing the jabber
   rooms over IPv6...

* IETF NOC post mortem

* IESG/IAB-sponsored post mortem
