Sometimes it feels difficult to contribute, but it's easy to track the work.
Sorry, I did not mean it as criticism, I was pointing out the constraints. My point was that having lots of interim meetings seems a good way to deal with them,
I am not functioning at 100% right now.
Many things Internet have scaled. The IETF ain't one of them. Some people are still insisting that it work in the same way as 25 years ago. How can that make sense.
W3C didn't scale either, we ended up having to create OASIS.
IETF meetings are supposed to be designed for two things: working the drafts and exchanging ideas between the WGs and areas. And they do a poor job at both.
How about this for a radical plan, Have a joint ETSI-OASIS-W3C-CABForum-IETF meeting (and anyone else). do it maybe once every two years. And make it all about what each of the organizations is doing and where they are going rather than work. Focus on the exchange part.
Oh and stick a trade show on the side, make a bundle
