[recipe] FYI: draft-eckert-ietf-and-energy-overview

[Toerless Eckert <[e-mail]>]

I've seen over the last year some random interest in various IETF groups
in looking at the impact of what the IETF does on Energy consumption, and
i wasn't myself clear about that.  So we tried to figure out a bit what
we  _think_ the impact is, and ended putting together some initial document attempting to
summarize the various categories we could think of.

Most of the impact is probably something we might call incidental, aka: digitization through
IP, converged networks, Internet and the like, but of course there is also our IoT (low energy networking)
work and EMAN etc. pp. So even trying to find useful categorization/taxonomy is difficult.

I would d love to get feedback / thoughts on this work, also looking for
collaborators, if you're interested.

The work is hosted here on github: https://github.com/toerless/energy

2 summary slides here:

   https://github.com/toerless/energy/raw/main/what-has-the-ietf-ever-done-for-energy.pdf

Will be happy to take feedback also simply via github issues, even if just
feedback like "i hated this doc / i liked this doc" if you should read it.

Not quite sure where to best discuss work like this on IETF mailing lists,
but i found an old mailing list 10 year in hiatus: [e-mail],

 recipe -- RECIPE (Reducing Energy Consumption with Internet Protocols Exploration)

So maybe that's a more dedicated good place to start instead of architecture-discuss
(which often has not been too welcoming of non-IAB promoted/lead work discussions, ...)

Cheers
