Sorry to add to the noise, but I have an Iphone (two actually) and I am happy to be able to quickly peruse the paper copy which fits nicely in my badge. I accept the risk of inaccuracy.
You have every right to dislike it and not use it, but don't try to take it away from others who do appreciate it. Please refrain from making that recommendation to the secretariat.
There are already far less than before (which could become an issue).

Objet : Please stop killing trees with pre-printed agendas

I am becoming convinced that the small pre-printed folded agendas are doing more harm than good.

We've become more dynamic with meeting scheduling - the pre-printed agendas are almost always incorrect at the start of the meeting.

We have much better online tools, including smartphone apps that provide better access to non-stale data.

We've found it easy to have printers on-site for anyone who really needs to print a copy (and can post instructions in an easy to find place on how to make that happen).

Therefore, I would propose that the secretariat be directed to not provide the folded agendas in Seoul, so that we eliminate the printing and shipping expense (and associated environmental impact).
