Re: [Recentattendees] [104all] Further Clarification Re: IETF 104 Preliminary Agenda

[Fred Baker <[e-mail]>]

Puzzling about the CC line, and have reduced it somewhat. I am a paid attendee at IETF 104, and got a bounce from [e-mail] saying that mere mortals can't post to it.

And while no user is associated with that data, (I don’t even create users), it is something that could be collected anonymously in the future. There’s a lot that could be done with anonymous statistics or even creating actual users (like automatic blue sheet sign in using Bluetooth LE Proximity sensors or locating colleagues or subscribing to notifications), but I haven’t had time to think through the GDPR implications.

OK, I'm confused. There is this app, which runs on IOS or Android. I don't know where the data is stored, but I know I can tell it what WGs I care about and it will be displayed both on my phone, and on my laptop in a calendar called "IETFers". If it can get from my phone to my calendar on my laptop, it can get to somewhere else. I'm suggesting that the "somewhere else" might anonymize the data and summarize it in some useful way.

Is that "every IETFer?" No. But I'll bet it's a large sample...
