I'm being lazy here, do the obvious replacement and see
what you think about the attached.

If enough people want to try it, the sacred meeting can join 
the experiment. Send the chairs a mail offlist if you think we 
should do this, and in particular, say if you'd participate 
but won't be in Atlanta, or if you'll be in Atlanta and will 
act as scribe.

We'll let the list know in a week how many of each we've
gotten.

Stephen.

--=====================_8063584==_
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed

We are running an experiment at the IETF meeting in Atlanta.  This note is 
to find out whether the S/MIME WG wants to participate in the experiment or 
not.  The experiment is to determine if Jabber can be used during the IETF 
meeting to allow people who cannot come to Atlanta to participate.

Jabber conference rooms have been set up for each working group that will 
hold a session in Atlanta.  For the S/MIME WG, the conference room is:

     Group/Room: smime
     Server:     conference.ietf.jabber.com

I have attached the instructions for accessing the rooms, and so on.

If I do not get a volunteer to be the scribe, then we will not participate 
in this experiment.

Russ

	     Remote Access for the 55th IETF meeting in Atlanta:
			     Text Conferencing

At each IETF meeting, two of the working group meeting rooms are equipped
for video multicast and remote participation.  That is, for every IETF
meeting slot, two of the working groups can see and hear the
meeting. For the 55th IETF, in *addition* to the usual network A/V, text
conferencing will be provided for every working group that meets.

All of the conference rooms will be hosted on

    conference.ietf.jabber.com

and each is named using the official IETF abbreviation found in the
agenda (e.g., "apparea",  "dhc", "forces", and so on -- for all the
examples that follow, we'll use "foobar" as the abbreviation).

Each conference room also has a 'bot which records everything that gets
sent. So, the minute taker can review this information right after the
meeting.
    
    
1. Before the meeting:

1.1. If you want to participate
    
If you don't already have one, get yourself a Jabber client, here are some
suggestions:

    platform	suggestion
    --------	----------
    win32	http://exodus.jabberstudio.org
    'nix	http://gabber.sf.net
    macos	http://jabberfox.sf.net

When you start the client for the first time, it will eventually ask if
you want to register on a public server. Go ahead and do
that. 
    
If you want to find out more, instead of choosing these defaults, here
are pointers to some additional information:
    
    list of clients:    http://www.jabber.org/user/clientlist.php
              howto:    http://www.jabber.org/user/userguide/
        server list:    http://www.jabber.org/user/publicservers.php

To make sure everything is running ok, do a "Join Group Chat" with your
Jabber client:
    
    Group/Room: testing
    Server:     conference.ietf.jabber.com

This conference room is up and running right now (although probably no
one will be in it when you connect).
    
1.2. What the Chair does
    
If you want to make text conferencing available, you'll need to have a
volunteer scribe in the meeting room. The scribe will be typing in a
running commentary as to what's going on in the room (who's presenting,
what question is being asked, etc.)
    
So, why not send an email out on the mailing list now, before the
meeting, to ask for volunteers?
    
    
2. At the meeting

2.1. What the Chair does

When a session starts, the chair asks if someone in the room is willing
to act as "scribe". If no one volunteers, read no further, we're done!

Otherwise, the scribe should do a "Join Group Chat" with their Jabber
client, e.g.,

    Group/Room: foobar
    Server:     conference.ietf.jabber.com


2.2. What the Scribe does

The scribe types in a running commentary as to what's going on in the
room. For example, if a speaker makes a presentation, the scribe types
in the URL for the presentation (more on this in a bit).

Simlarly, during question time, a remote participant can type a question
into the room and the scribe can pass it on to the speaker.


2.3. What each Presenter does

Each presenter should put a copy of their presentation on a web server
somewhere, so remote participants can follow along. 
    
If you don't have a server available, email your presentation to
    
    To: [email protected]
    Subject: foobar
    
and the Secretariat will put the presentation in a server so it can be
accessed under:
    
    http://atlanta.ietf.org/presentations/foobar/
    
Don't wait until the last minute to send the email.
    

2.4. Where to find the conference log
    
    http://www.jabber.com/chatbot/logs/conference.ietf.jabber.com/foobar/
    
    
2.5. Finally
    
This is an experiment. Let's see how well it works and discuss it after
the meeting.
