Given the number of people browsing the web or reading e-mail during meetings, I wonder whether cutting off Internet access beyond internal network services for jabber, presentation materials, etc during IETF meetings wouldn't actually _increase_ productivity. It could make people pay attention to the technical discussions. Some people could even spend the time writing specifications. Or _implement_ the specifications and test them against others, although that might be too far-fetched. /Simon - only half :-) _______________________________________________ Ietf@xxxxxxxx https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
