Dave Crocker said: "1. Can you provide some rationale for the details of the experiment? 2. Is one goal to maximize the attendance conflicts among BOFs?" 1. In terms of rationale, I am reminded of Kinky Freedman's slogan, when running for Governor or Texas: "Why Not?" (see http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,146289,00.html for details). However, I do admit that this approach can sometimes backfire (see http://www.independentpoliticalreport.com/2010/07/kinky-friedman-endorses-do g-for-texas-governor/ ). 2. With experiments like this, the effects can be unpredictable. So it's possible that the experiment could *minimize* attendance conflicts at BOFs -- by minimizing attendance. _______________________________________________ Ietf mailing list Ietf@xxxxxxxx https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
