The wording is better, but it's still the case that I'd rather that we made a better effort to conduct the bulk of the IETF's business on mailing lists rather than in meetings. What I'm saying is that it's hard to get the toothpaste back in the tube, and that if the growing role of meetings is inevitable let's acknowledge that and try to make it work well. I like Spencer's suggestion. In the past I've prepared final meeting minutes by editing together the minute-taker's notes and the jabber log and I thought it worked very well.
