<font face="Verdana">Good point, Shiva, and one many have made at the
OC this morning. We are now past the time for this agenda point, and
are moving on to agenda. We are not looking for a solution for today,
but for participation in a process. I suggest that you send this
comment directly to the IGF secretariat, and I know the RPWG will take
it under consideration.<br>

<div>It is all run by volunteers, yes, but this is not a comment
about people, it is a comment about the resources to be committed,
about the attention that needs to be paid. IGF needs to consult
professionals months in advance to determine the bandwidth
and infrastructure requirements, arrange to send experts to the
locations days in advance to flawlessly set up the remote participation
infrastructure. </div>

<div>My suggestion here is that administratively the

<div bgcolor="#ffffff" text="#000000">Hello Bernard,<br>
<br>
thank you, and thanks to all of the others (Patrik Fältström, for
example), who have tried to have some kind of remote participation
set-up. This is not meant as a criticism of anyone, just a provocative
remark to get some people to open their eyes, rather than bathing each
other in congratulatory, back-patting, empty speech.<br>
<br>
The trouble is that I've never managed to get the video/audio feed to
work.<br>
For one, they don't work with Firefox.<br>
And then it appears that there's not enough bandwidth somewhere along
the line...<br>
I can get Webex, Skype, Marratech, Adobe Meeting, and Jabber to work
perfectly, even with 2-way video, and yet, remote participation at this
meeting = nil.<br>
<br>
Whatever, remote participation, for me, currently rates at 0/10. ie.
non existent.<br>
<br>
Any remote participation system should be designed for 100s of remote
participants, and should not fail when more than 10 people connect
simultaneously...<br>
<br>
My question: with the whole point of the IGF being multi-stakeholder
public participation, why is this subject not being dealt with in a
professional way?<br>
The current arrangement is very poor. Sorry, I mean: dreadful. It makes
the whole IGF process a complete joke. <br>
Perhaps Dr. Touré was right when he used the term "waste of time".<br>
