Hi,

I think that the attendance at the QUIC interim do not provide a good representation of  the general participants in terms of country of origin.

I understand the point, and agree that the QUIC participants, especially in-person interim participants, aren't a random sample that reflects the overall IETF, in a number of ways.

We really are making it up as we go along, because the definition of "stable" is in flux. We're working from the data we have, and I'm not sure what we can do beyond saying what we're planning, and asking for concerns - whether at the working group level for interims, or the IETF level for our three-meetings-per-year.

BTW: getting a visa to Australia was a bit of a challenge.

Any reported experiences like this are valuable.

Spencer, as QUIC AD for less than a month to go

Lars.

 

This is great data since it involves actual IETFers and it’s pretty current.

 

Did the QUIC meetings run into any issues at the other places you’ve met ?    No need to mention individuals and their situations – high level info is fine.

And we did poll the WG list before the US meetings to check if anyone that was interested in attending in person would have difficulties doing so; for the two US meetings, that was not the case.
