This is not the solution. I'm not going to change the technology that I use because we haven't been able to setup a good network here. We should learn from the mistakes and do it better next time, as we know it worked in Vienna. I use b or g, because is what I carry with me, and I will not accept being forced to move to a, because we aren't able to fix problem that can be solved, is not rational ! If the network is a/b/g, then no problem, but not restrict the support for one or the other. We know b and g work ! The network is important for most of us. I'm not going to attend to more meeting if the network is not warranted to work, because this is taking a lot of my time, and I need facilities to do it, not difficulties. The volunteer effort need some compensation, and we only demand for a stable network. I think is not too much, specially because we know that can be done. We have less and less people attending the meeting, and I feel that if we can't keep going with our obligations (daily work) together with our IETF volunteer effort, the attendance with drop more and more. I hope we can solve this problem soon.
