Yes, but...

(1) A hypothetical remote participating newcomer is expected to
find that how?  I note that the IETF home page links to mailing
lists do not list either 87all or 87attendees in any of the
obvious places.

(2) That page provides a mechanism for subscribing to
87attendees (the cookies and coffee and, I assume,
bumped-from-hotel-attendees very soon, discussion list) but not
a link to the far more important for remote folks 87all.   If
there is a way to subscribe to that without registering, I
haven't found it.

Note to remote participants:   The cookies and coffee list is
also where a lot of comments about the meeting network and
related facilities appears.  While most remote participants
don't need to know how poorly the network works in some
alternate hotel, information about Meetecho and Webex status
tends to appear there too.
