An incredibly easy way to follow IETF 74 remotely

March 23rd, 2009 by Dan York

ietflogo-2.jpgGiven that I’m not actually in San Francisco for the 74th meeting of the IETF this week, I was extremely pleased to find this new prototype of the agenda page which makes it incredibly easy to follow the meeting remotely:

http://tools.ietf.org/agenda/74/

From one simple page you can:

  • See the calendar of what working groups are meeting when.

  • Download all the Internet-Drafts that will be covered in a session.
  • Start listening to the audio.
  • See a list of the presentations that will be given during the session (and then download those).
  • Join the Jabber chat room for the session.
  • Read the Jabber logs to know what was written about the session.
  • See the agenda for the session.

Here’s how those items appear graphically:

I’m not sure who at IETF created this new prototype agenda page, but I have to say that as a remote attendee it is tremendously helpful to have all this information brought together on one simple page.
