G’day all It has been four weeks since the last remote-only meeting of the
IEEE 802 Future meeting ad hoc. So far we have heard two perspectives on what has worked well and not so well in remote-only meetings over the last two years from:
There has also been a small amount of e-mail discussion, questioning the efficacy of holding remote-only meetings for various TG and WGs in a short block Would anyone else like to share their perspectives … before I start driving the group towards conclusions? The request for perspectives is based on the following questions:
If we get a volunteer, I will suggest another remote-only call this year Andrew Ben Rolfe’s notes from the session he led on 27 Oct 2021 How can we make meetings more efficient?
·
Streamline the meeting preamble: develop a concise and consistent way of presenting
o
Right now various groups do it differently and it can take a significant time
o
Most participants have seen it many times already
o
Could ask people to review the slides before the meeting (maybe on calendar entry)
o
Need SA input on how abbreviated we can get
·
Reduce meeting density during sessions (ie number of meetings running in parallel)
o
More flexible for remote meetings more than in-person or hybrid
o
Less overlap can improve cross-WG participation
o
Not practical for in-person meetings
o
Some overlap unavoidable - a month long virtual session doesn’t work
o
Overlapping some things is more OK than other things Observations on in person vs remote:
·
Initial impressions are important in building working relationship
·
The importance may vary based on activity
·
Remote makes this more difficult
·
Seen this slowing things down in 2020-21 Observations on the “IETF Experience”
·
Different “normal” than 802
·
But similar impacts noted:
o
Easier to continue progress on existing projects, mature projects
o
New work slowed Question about remote only (whether temporary or as an alternative long term):
·
Need a process for improved socialization
·
Could a virtual social be useful?
o
Been tried in other forums
o
Results mixed
o
