It may sound a bit bureaucratic, but if we want to have these
remote people to start sending emails, comments, reviewing draft we
need to break the "ice" somehow. It does not have to be extensive,
a short intro could be enough.
I like what you said about breaking the ice. As mentioned above,
having local people would help. There is a Newcomers tutorial which
explains what is a working group, what is the IETF, etc.
Joel Jaeggli mentioned that a regional NOG is not fertile ground for
new IETF participants. Is LACNOG fertile ground for new IETF participants?
The "sending email, comments, reviewing draft" is the really
difficult part. My uneducated guess is that it would takes months of
work. It's not as negative as it sounds if you consider that
overcoming the barrier of entry might usually take over a year.
Could you ask the people who attended the talk (

about it to edu-discuss mailing list?
