Hi Rich, The IESG and the IRTF Chair have been assessing the viability of the in-person meeting based on the community’s ability to be productive. Assessment of health concerns has been the job of the LLC, on a separate track. The IESG and the IRTF Chair wanted to make our decision based on data to the extent possible. We sent our request for input to WG/RG chairs on March 4 as travel restrictions were accumulating. We requested responses by 12:00 UTC today. We made our decision shortly after that and communicated it to the community after coordinating a communications plan with the LLC.

I do not want to inject bias by asking leading questions, but I do want to know "what where y'all thinking" for the past month. I think we are owed that. Are there meeting minutes or transcripts? > >
