Hi folks,

Adding some comments here - hopefully English is not a problem (feel free
to reply in Spanish/Portuguese).

I appreciate the tone in the draft touching upon some points that are
critical, specially, at the moment, in this IETF generation.

I mentioned some initiatives to Fernando such as the waiver for the remote
meetings (that should imho be made permanent) and the shmoo doc that is a
small water drop  in a hot stone. The IETF could likewise put some budget
aside to fund authors from the LAC region with docs to be present in a
physical meeting (similarly to the funding available at IRTF/ANRP fronts).

I appreciate the education part as well, as it usually depends on the
on-site meetings for newcomers to give ppl a mentor but it doesn’t make the
process of digesting the documents and understanding process better. You go
once to this meeting and ... you are forgotten. Have fun digging out docs,
emails and finding peers.

Lastly, language: I have been in some meetings were the presenter was
intimidated by the audience bcs of insufficient good English to catch in a
discussion at the mic or even hostile language. Maybe the most vivid
experience was a Japanese presenting about DCTCP and the TSV WG-chair did
nothing to reduce the pressure on her. There is a certain tolerance to some
behavior that would be otherwise reported if you belong to some silos. They
seem to have a hard time believing that you (belonging to the silo) could
be doing a bad job in the community and not just polishing your ego or
backscratching your friends. I believe the IETF needs a committee that
starts cleaning up this sort of bad language and/or behavior with power to
ban a member or WG chair for meeting(s) or assuming any other function.

Finally, people of the same organization holding tokens to others of the
same organization and just moving chair among them, pulling the next one of
the same or, when their term is over. It shouldn’t be allowed consecutive
terms of people coming from the same affiliation.

My2c. Saludos,
Simone
