All organizations will be in Brussels in October, not Geneva in September. One additional observation - independent of the process of getting standards right, the history of any standards organization in figuring out where market will go has been abysmal. One way to get into trouble is to try to figure out what the users are doing. There was a sense of urgency, which still exists, everyone knew that not just the specifications, but also deployment, and then fixing any errors, etc - need to do all of that too. The 6bone is getting big.
Various people have different ideas of when the zero year is.
Perhaps IAB can say what we can do about spam. Some technical measures that can be taken - the IESG will look at those. But most are not engineering, are sociological or political. Wondering if IAB have sat down and talked about it, and decided that there is nothing we can do, or just not considered the matter. More annoyed by junk phone calls than spam e-mail.
