As requested: "It will be greatly appreciated if you could ask your WG members to anonymously fill a short survey..." Marc. -------- Message original -------- Sujet : request for help in developing a tool that may be helpful to WG chairs Date : Wed, 3 Mar 2010 10:36:19 -0500 (EST) De : sob@harvard.edu (Scott O. Bradner) Pour : wgchairs@ietf.org IETF working group chairs; We are developing an open-source tool for monitoring the status and progress of conflicts in on-line working groups (WG). The tool works by analyzing the WG mailing list. When developed, this tool should be helpful to WG chairs trying to understand the status of WG discussions (how close to consensus is the WG, what is the distribution of participation, etc). As part of the development process we have been using a prototype tool to analyze IETF WG mailing list archives to determine the amount of conflict and how effective this conflict is being (has been) resolved. As the first step, we need to understand the relationship between the conflicts in a working group and the structure of the communication network in that group. While having conflicts is not necessarily a bad thing for a working group effort, some conflicts can escalate into disasters. We are interested in finding the communication patterns related to the evolution of group conflicts. Results from this study will provide the base for the development of the tool that helps working group chairs to decide when to intervene with an internal conflict before it becomes irreversibly negative as well as being a tool that may help determine where there is consensus on a particular topic. We would like your help in understanding the level of conflicts within your working groups and how the conflicts affect productivity and group membersâ perception on the working group. It will be greatly appreciated if you could ask your WG members to anonymously fill a short survey at https://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?hl=en&formkey=dExTbEU5QmRncnhFbjhQUVR4bzBGMEE6MA Thank you!
