We have realized that people who crossed the international date line within the past 24 hours were on a plane when the deadlines to request slots for this IETF's HotRFC session and provide slides happened.
Because we want to Do The Right Thing, we are accepting late requests until 1500 Japan Standard Time. Any slides must be submitted with your slot request - otherwise, you'll be speaking with your request showing.
And we're looking forward to tonight's session.
Do you have an idea, problem space, or proposal that IETFers and IRTFers should hear about?
Do you want to propose IETF or IRTF work but aren’t sure if your idea is ready or who else will be interested?
Agenda requests are now being accepted for the Request for Conversation (HotRFC) lightning talk session. Presenters will have 4 minutes to make their case for conversations.. Interested folks can contact the presenter and continue the discussion after the session.
Goals include encouraging brainstorming conversations, helping new work proposers find collaborators, raising awareness of relevant work going on elsewhere, and promoting BarBoFs. Past HotRFC lightning talks have covered a broad range of purposes, including:
Collaboration: proposals for new standards work or new research topics that haven't been discussed elsewhere, potentially relevant research that may be ready for the IETF
Notification: new topics on the agenda in a BOF, working group or research group, especially cross-area IETF work
Enlightenment: updates on relevant technologies, industry advances that could affect IETF participants.
With strict time limits, concise talks will give viewers a sense of whether they’d like to know more and, importantly, coordinates on how to do so.
With the current hybrid IETF meeting format, we’re going to keep things simple and permit only live presentations, either on-site or remote via MeetEcho. Slides must be submitted in advance.
To request a slot, submit a short abstract to hotrfc@xxxxxxxx no later than Friday, March 24th, 2400 UTC that includes the following
Talk title
Presenter, Affiliation, and whether you’ll be presenting in person or remotely
Short topic abstract (topics should be IETF- or IRTF-related in some way)
What you're looking for (education, collaborators, implementers, etc.)
Coordinates to learn more, contact those involved, participate in existing mailing lists and scheduled meetings, and/or relevant formal or side meetings.
Any relevant drafts or helpful resources you’d like collaborators to look at
To provide slides, submit ppt or pdf to hotrfc@xxxxxxxx no later than Saturday, March 25, 2400 UTC.
Talk abstracts and slides will be posted on the meeting agenda. The agenda will be updated as requests come in.
The session will be on Sunday, March 26, at 1800 Japan Standard Time, in room G302
All talks will be presented live, whether in-person or via MeetEcho
Video of the session will be recorded for later viewing.
Spencer Dawkins and Liz Flynn will be hosting the session on-site. We hope you’ll tune in.

P.s. If you think holding a public side meeting would be useful for people who are interested in your topic, there’s a wiki for that, at https://wiki.ietf.org/meeting/116/sidemeetings.
