Thank you, Joel, for putting pen to paper (pixels to glass?) on this,
and thank you, Jari, Randy, and Warren for sharing your thoughts.
As was pointed out, we've had conversations about LIMs previously. It
might be worth asking Ray to provide a paragraph or two on history and
the motivations when some of the previous LIMs were discussed.
My memory of the proposed 2009 Malta LIM (supplemented by Teh Google)
was that the working groups planning to meet weren't just from one
area of interest (something like four RAI groups, plus SOFTWIRES and
BEHAVE). I don't know if that helps or hurts - at a minimum,
RIPE/foonog may not be the draw for RAI that it was for the groups
that met this time.
yeah I didn't have enough useful data on the proposed meeting in malta
to really commit it to the initial draft.
for one I had the dates wrong in my notes.
FWIW, http://trac.tools.ietf.org/2009/jan-large-interim/ says 60
potential attendees didn't qualify as a large interim :-)
that is useful.
