Dave, count this as another area where something you seem to find
obvious is not obvious to me and kind of goes against my observations.

I think that if you want to chair a working group or bring new work to
the IETF you probably need to attend the face-to-face meetings.

I haven't seen much of a change in the above. Nor have I personally
witnessed a decline in the influence of people who attend remotely. In
working groups I follow a number of key individuals attend the meetings
less..  Some of them also spend less time on the IETF; they do seem to
have lost influence, but others who still spend significant time do not
seem to have lost influence.

So, I'm curious what observations lead people to this conclusion.
