G’day all The results below are relatively clear that a Sept F2F meeting is not viable/reasonable. However, it does highlight the question of what is our criteria for restarting F2F meetings? Given we are an international SDO, my view is that we should take into account the accessibility of F2F locations to our members internationally.
One way of doing this is to consider government travel advisories. Using the USG as an example, most of the world is rated as:
Many/most countries currently rate the US as Level 3 or Level 4 too. It is not reasonable to ask our members to visit countries contrary to government advice. Members in many of these countries are
practically not allowed to visit the US and other countries, both by rules in their home country and the destination country. There are a bunch of Level 2 countries based on the USG rating (some surprising), including a few that IEEE 802.11 WG has visited before (bolded):
Maybe we should restrict any future surveys to destinations that are rated by most governments as Level 1 or Level 2? Andrew From: Dorothy Stanley <dstanley1389@xxxxxxxxx>
