I suspect that this DT needs to operate a private list. There may be =
many things that you want to say in public and discuss with the =
community, but there will be things you wish to have as a closed =
discussion as well.

I'm confused how this list can serve both purposes, and if it is =
intended for the first purpose, why subscription is moderated.

Please take this as input, and not a topic needing discussion.

Thanks,
Adrian

After reading the description a few times, my best guess is that this 
/is/ the internal list.  Hence, it will be used for the internal 
discussions but others can send messages to it. That is, it's like the 
iesg@, iab@ and iaoc@ lists.

But as I say, that's just my guess...

The idea was this would be a design team private list that would allow
non-subscribers to send in comments (similar to the nomcom list). I did
not expect the list to be announced on ietf-announce.

Makes sense. I will open up this list and request the creation of
another list for private design team discussion.

Input well taken.

If you want a non-WG mailing list not to be announced, you have to
explicitly tell the Secretariat than when you request creation.  The
default is to announce it.

Hello,

To start the discussion I'll quote Jari Arkko:

   "we think of diversity as something that covers international participation,
    different cultures, gender, age, organisational background, and so on.
    While the IETF has become a very international organisation (with
    participants from 60 countries working on documents, for instance),
    there are many aspects of diversity where we could do much better.  Overall
    participation is concentrated in some areas of the world, with little
    participation from Africa and South America, for instance. Similarly,
    while the IETF has some very active female participants and leadership
    members, the numbers are very small.  Much of the work in the IETF is
    driven by large networking companies, yet academia and small companies
    would have more to give, and operational experience from additional
    operators would be similarly appreciated.

   Importantly, these disparities appear most prominently in our leadership"

There is little participation from developing countries as the people 
identified to participate in the IETF do not do protocol-related 
work.  I don't know whether anyone on this mailing list has seen 
http://www.africafornorway.no/  That's the approach currently being 
taken.  It is not in the interest of anybody to raise the issue.  The 
few people who attempt to participate in a discussion can receive 
disparaging remarks from regular IETF participants.  Nobody raises 
any objection.  I saw a case recently.  I did not say anything as in 
my opinion there would not be any community support.

Someone mentioned "be persistent" in a discussion on an unrelated 
IETF mailing list.  The IETF culture discourages people who are not 
familiar with U.S. culture to participate.  It's not that the people 
are not persistent; it's difficult to understand how the IETF works.

In my opinion the IETF does not understand young people.  There is a 
tendency to either take a paternalistic approach or else expect 
people to go through the same difficulties so that they can learn.

If a person comes to an IETF meeting he/she will see women at the 
registration desk and maybe one or two women in a working group 
session.  He/she won't see any women on the IESG.  It looks like the 
usual stereotypes.  The five women who went to the microphone were 
courageous enough to do so.

It has been mentioned that the values are more important than who 
"represents" whom.  The values do not map to what the average 
participant sees.  There is a saying: "Not only must justice be done; 
it must also be seen to be done".

Regards,
-sm

Hi,

I would like to get a good feel for what the IETF believes are the 
diversity problems, ones that are not helping it, i.e. causing problems, 
and thus we are seeking suggestions to improve the IETF as a whole?

What are the diversity problems to solve/address?  Diversity can mean 
many things as well.  It could be the IETF is diversifying in its 
product lines, like addressing new problems other than the development 
of the Internet protocols and methods.  Is this related to other forms 
of diversity? mindsets and philosophies?

So far, it seems to me that the key diversity concerns falls into a 
gender/cultural vs everything else diversity issue.

   o Gender Diversity
   X International Diversity (completed??)
   X Electronic Diversity (completed?? anyone can "join" electronically)
   o Vendor Diversity
   o Diversity in Leadership
   o Diversity in Projects (working groups)
   o Diversity in Reviewers
   o Others?

I think one of the main goals of diversity is how it addresses the 
questions for sense of fairness and conflicts of interest.  One of the 
attributes of having lesser participation is more of the IETF projects 
are monopolized by the same folk(s), naturally.  That can be good but 
also a problem in my view when the synergism is lost, input is not 
considered, etc.   I think there are some process issues that are being 
exploited (because they are allowed) by IETF folks that is not always 
ideal.  We see the pressures to expedite and "rubber stamp" the work 
efforts.

As far as gender, well, I don't think the IETF has a copyright on this 
problem, nor do I believe it can find an ideal solution that will not 
include a quota system.  Having asked the question of Human Resources 
folks and also dealing with it myself, every company and organization 
(especially those doing any form of work related to the federal 
government) that is concern about it, uses a quota system. I don't see 
how it can be avoided.

But overall, I think the two (Gender/Culture vs Everything else) are 
totally different set of problems with two different sets of solutions.

I agree that the most pressing diversity "dimensions" are probably gender a=
nd cultural/regional background.

Lack of diversity along those dimensions is an issue both in terms of the g=
eneral body of IETF participants as well we in terms of the group of IETF l=
eaders (WG chairs, I*, etc.)

I'd personally be very happy if we could increase diversity along those two=
 dimensions in those two sets of people. Yes, there are probably other dive=
rsity dimensions, and there are probably other sets of people and things we=
 could apply these and other dimensions to. But to me personally, those are=
 secondary.

The set of attendees is the pool out of which leadership positions get fill=
ed. So measures and processes to make the IETF an attractive place for all =
kinds of folks to participate in should be one of our focus areas. As shoul=
d measures/processes that will bring new attendees closer into the IETF onc=
e they have begun to attend, such as training them for leadership positions=
.

And then there are the various leadership selection processes (chair select=
ion, NomCom appointments, various other appointments done by I*, etc.) For =
many of those, we already have detailed processes, and I personally wouldn'=
t want to spend much energy on trying to patch them in the hopes of increas=
ing diversity. I hope that this will resolve itself when the attendee pool =
is more diverse.

Half-baked thought: In the meantime, instead of tweaking selection processe=
s, maybe it would be a fist step to simply ask the various selecting bodies=
 and individuals for a pledge. The pledge would be that when they pick some=
one for a leadership position, they take a moment to ask themselves "if we'=
re selecting a white male person, is he really the best selection for this =
position, in terms of individual qualification and in terms of making sure =
that the diversity of the community is represented in its leadership?"

I would like to suggest that one of the problems that IETF has is not just =
about who the attendees/participants/leadership are, but about the behavior=
 that is tolerated, espoused, and demonstrated by all of these. I'm not per=
sonally aware of overly bad behavior being espoused or demonstrated by lead=
ers, but I am keenly aware of it among some attendees and participants. Whi=
ch suggests to me that there is not a very strong message from leadership t=
o discourage it (i.e., it is being tolerated).

I'd also like to mention (in case IETF members aren't aware) that IETF has =
a rather bad reputation in the operator community as being an incredibly ho=
stile place to do business, where operators are routinely insulted and bash=
ed (as an industry), and discussions around operational complexity are trea=
ted dismissively and derisively. v6ops is an exception; an exception that h=
ad to specifically be created as a place where operators would feel "safe" =
in trying to have those discussions. Personally, I try to steer standards e=
fforts that I can influence anywhere else but IETF, because I dislike worki=
ng in a hostile environment. In talking with other employees of operators, =
I've concluded I'm not the only one who feels this way. I work in a variety=
 of other SDOs and SIGs, where there is strong and often contentious discus=
sion, and where behavior of segments of the industry or specific companies =
is often directly discussed. But nowhere have I experienced such open hosti=
lity towards operators as in IETF. BTW, I notice there's a distinct lack of=
 operators in the IETF leadership. I wonder if there's any correlation.=20

This sort of diversity does fall into the "everything else" category, and i=
t may be something that IETF doesn't want to address. IETF may be happy wit=
h its limited operator participation -- I don't know. I do suspect, though,=
 that if there were less tolerance (by all in IETF) of foul language, openl=
y hostile and insulting comments (directed at anybody), and other bad behav=
ior, that it might improve the willingness of more women and people from ot=
her regions to participate, as well as people who work for operators. But s=
uch expectations would have to come from the top.

Please know, I'm not saying all of this to belittle IETF. I'm saying this b=
ecause I truly would like for IETF to become an organization that doesn't m=
ake me cringe whenever I think about doing work within its confines. The ar=
mor and bullet-proof vests I surround myself with to participate in IETF di=
scussions is about 10 times thicker than the armor I surround myself with f=
or other SDOs and SIGs. And it's not the technical comments I'm defending a=
gainst. It's the irrational FUD and the ones that get personal.

Right. I also think that - for example - we have successfully scared away m=
uch of the research community from the IETF, which is one reason why potent=
ially disrupting technologies that are coming out of university research (s=
uch as SDN & OpenFlow) are being developed in new fora rather than here.

I don't think the IETF has made any such decision; my earlier email just tr=
ied to summarize what I think we should focus on. More operators - and more=
 researchers, for that matter - would make the organization stronger. The r=
eason I tried to argue for a narrow scope, i.e., picking a few key diversit=
y issues - at least initially -and doing something concrete about them soon=
er rather than later, is that otherwise I fear this list will turn into a d=
iscussion club and be ineffective.

I'd love for us to actually TRY something by the Berlin or at least Vancouv=
er meeting.

I've no clear view as to what the operator community think
but would be interested to find out and agree it'd be
better to have more of 'em about.

I think its easy to agree to not condone bad behaviour. But
one person's robust debate is another's foul language maybe
so for this thread to be useful someone sometime would need
to try figure out what's problematic and what's not, which
I guess can mostly only be done via illustrative examples
about which folks would wildly disagree. (I'm not asking
that we do that now via email, that'd likely be
counterproductive, someone should ponder it a bit more
first probably.)

But I don't think this is right. I think by far the most
important factor there is that academics are now so
publication (and publication metric) obsessed that they
don't care about the IETF since our publications simply
don't count in that universe. If you can get a sigcomm
paper via ns-2 that's much more productive than spending
a couple of years haggling with the real Internet.
I'd be surprised if they had been scared off by bad or
good behaviour. They could be attracted back if RFCs or
chairing counted for tenure maybe, if someone could try
encourage that. It'd probably take a few top-ranked
universities doing it publicly or something though for
it to start happening.

What this suggests to me is that we may want to spend time on how to
improve the overall participation "enviroment" of the IETF. If the
environment turns folk away, we need to think seroiusly about changing
the environment. This is of course not easy, but is part of the
background that enables (or fosters) diversity issues more
generally. 

One thing this will take is looking at specific examples (when they
happen) and dealing with them in a direct way. It's easy to downplay
individual incidents as "not that bad" or "exceptions", but they do
have a way fo building up over time.

I doubt raising these issues with the I* is enough. Has it been done?
Has there been results?

I personally know of one very outrageous example that occurred in
Atlanta. But talking about it publically puts the target in a very
awkward position and many folk don't want to do that because they fear
the repurcussions. That this does indeed happen makes clear to me we
have a real issue in this community.

Yes. I've seen it and talked to operators that are now on the side
lines saying "who are they to tell me that how I run my data center is
stupid and I should just change it?" Part of this comes from an
attitude among some IETFers that the louder (and more frequently) one
shouts (whether what one says actually makes sense or not) is the way
you get things done or "become a leader" in the IETF. That is an
example of something the IETF has long tolerated and creates a
negative environment.

These are great pints and I think it seems evident that change is needed to=
 improve diversity.  I do think stories are helpful, especially when someth=
ing was done successfully to correct a situation.  We can learn from this a=
nd figure out how we can apply it more broadly to open up the environment t=
o others.  I would like to learn more about how this issue was fixed in v6o=
ps and how that may be replicated (if appropriate). =20

I also had an experience in Atlanta where someone was very excited about hi=
s work, and maybe the presentation could have been a little shorter, but it=
 was good.  I personally appreciated seeing someone that excited about the =
improvements in their work.  A few comments were made by others sitting nea=
r me (long-time attendees).  I shut down the side conversation near me (in =
a way that was well received), but that should not have been necessary.  Th=
ere were no derogatory comments, it just wasn't as friendly to newcomers.  =
Efforts like this will be needed to change the culture and it may be easier=
 to make them before the comments get worse (usually they progress).=20

Please keep the stories coming, preferably with solutions that worked!  It =
may be good to look at several examples and then take a step back to review=
 and determine improvements that can be made to existing programs/policies =
or new ones that are needed... or methods that we could use to open up the =
culture to diversity by improving the interactions and respect between part=
icipants.=20

I have also participated in a few SDOs.  I like the IETF format and experti=
se of participants, but we could benefit if it were easier for diverse view=
points to be represented.

Thank you,
Kathleen   =20

SM -

Good to hear your thoughts on this. Some responses inline:

> There is little participation from developing countries as the people =
identified to participate in the IETF do not do protocol-related work. I =
don't know whether anyone on this mailing list has seen =
http://www.africafornorway.no/ That's the approach currently being =
taken. It is not in the interest of anybody to raise the issue. The few =
people who attempt to participate in a discussion can receive =
disparaging remarks from regular IETF participants. Nobody raises any =
objection. I saw a case recently. I did not say anything as in my =
opinion there would not be any community support.

I'm sorry if there are such cases. It really is not appropriate at all, =
and I certainly support raising an objection. Or you could tell me and I =
can take it up with the persons in question.

FWIW, the IETF culture has=85 relatively aggressive discussion style. =
The effect is not felt just by people from developing countries, =
sometimes it hits the rest of us too. There are of course values even in =
the aggressive style. In particular, it is a core value of the IETF to =
be able to call out bad proposals. We want that to happen to ensure high =
quality of our results. But you can do that in multiple ways. Someone =
used the phrase "disagree without being disagreeable". You can be nice, =
even if you deliver a negative message.

> Someone mentioned "be persistent" in a discussion on an unrelated IETF =
mailing list. The IETF culture discourages people who are not familiar =
with U.S. culture to participate. It's not that the people are not =
persistent; it's difficult to understand how the IETF works.

Ok.

> In my opinion the IETF does not understand young people. There is a =
tendency to either take a paternalistic approach or else expect people =
to go through the same difficulties so that they can learn.

This I wholeheartedly agree with. And we really need to, if we are going =
to stay relevant. Not just understand young people. But have them run =
the networking design for the next decades.=20

And it is really not going to be just for the young people to follow the =
same path we've taken. I've had the opportunity to compare communication =
styles and Internet usage between different ages. =46rom my age to the =
thirty somethings to late teenagers to ten year olds. It is just =
incredibly amazing how different groups of people these are. When the 19 =
year olds look like dinosaurs from last century when I compare them to =
the 10 year olds, you know that some of us greybeards need to work =
really hard to stay on the curve :-)

> If a person comes to an IETF meeting he/she will see women at the =
registration desk and maybe one or two women in a working group session. =
He/she won't see any women on the IESG. It looks like the usual =
stereotypes. The five women who went to the microphone were courageous =
enough to do so.

I think this may be a bit more pronounced right now than it generally =
has been, particularly if you only look at the IESG. Over a longer =
period of time, we've generally had women in the IESG. Even now, if you =
look around you'll see at least some women in leadership. IAB. IAOC. =
ISOC. Nomcom. Also, quite many extremely respected experts and leaders =
of their technical fields. But yes, I wish there were more.

> It has been mentioned that the values are more important than who =
"represents" whom. The values do not map to what the average participant =
sees. There is a saying: "Not only must justice be done; it must also be =
seen to be done".

A fair comment.

I have written a blog post about the diversity topic:

http://www.ietf.org/blog/2013/04/diversity/

(I've already said many things about the diversity topic in the meeting =
and on various lists, so much of the material is something that you've =
already seen before. But it is possible that there are a few new things =
there, as well collecting multiple things in the same text.)

On the topic of diverse geographic input. Another idea
might be to try to encourage someone who actually knows
(i.e. not me:-) to document some of the different realities
that apply in less well connected environments. If we had
some RFC(s) that described that well, then I think that
might be useful input to other protocol deign efforts even
while we work to increase the number of active participants
from under-represented regions. I'm not aware of another
source at the level of detail that'd be useful there. (Glad
to be pointed at one if it exists.)

If it helped to have a semi-official venue, the IRTF DTNRG
could be a place for that particular piece of work since
some DTN folks do try to address such challenged networking
environments. I'd also be happy to help out shepherding or
whatever as I'm sure would others regardless of venue.

And of course the obvious also now occurs to me - maybe the
previous ISOC fellows could be asked to start that ball
rolling, with help from a few folks more familiar with how
to get an RFC done.

One concrete change we could make that might make a difference is to
change the mantra of "selecting the best person for the job" to
"selecting a person from a pool of candidates that are above the bar".

This is an important distinction. If we always select the "best"
person, that favors those that have been in the community for a long
time. Experience begets more experience. That is the essence of the
good ol' boys network.

What we really want, is to select people that will do an adequate
job. To me, that doesn't always mean "best". What it really means is
that they don't have any glaring disqualifications.

I.e., you can't expect folk to be "ideal" in all categories. But they
MUST not be below a threshold in key categories. Like judgement, BS
detection, ability to work with people, etc.

Slippery slope*).

I'd rather say that the objective function for "best" needs to factor in =
diversity.

supervisory boards in Germany.  I just don't want to go there.

Great points... Another complaint I have heard from the University and rese=
arch space is that it takes too long to get work to become a standard.  The=
 catch phrase, "standards should be written on napkins" has been getting tr=
action in other circles.  It may be helpful to provide explanations on how =
to get work through the IETF effectively, as well as emphasizing the value =
of a draft.  By emphasizing the value of a draft, this refers to the abilit=
y to write code or implement a draft and improve it as it moves to standard=
 status.  People outside of the IETF do not seem to understand that they ca=
n drive the time it takes to get a draft to a standard, so they don't want =
to try.  We have a few hurdles to overcome.

I think vendors see the value of having interoperable protocols, so we are =
all here.  There are some university efforts I would love to see helping wi=
th our standards efforts, but they write and support their own code.  They =
are not as worried about the broader community and how their work can reach=
 these communities through interoperable standards.  We may need to think o=
f ways to incent them to participate.

Thank you,
Kathleen=20

	I just wanted to same the same and I didn't know how.

	Perhaps we need to change the definition of what is best. For now, it
is my impression that the definition is "the person with the best
technical background and more experience."

This reminds me of how we often do WG chair selections. There are =
multiple criteria. One of the criteria that often got emphasised was =
"training new leadership". You do not always pick the person with most =
experience. You try to optimise the availability of talent on longer =
term. An (experienced person, new person with potential) pair was often =
the best choice from that perspective. A similar approach could apply =
with diversity - the optimisation function is not just about this =
particular seat, but also for breadth of experience across the =
organisation.

That's a good idea.  How about the use of other formats like recorded prese=
ntations, short youTube videos, and/or podcasts instead of or in addition t=
o drafts?  Updating our methods to distribute information may help with you=
nger attendees.  This might be limited to things that are not documented pr=
ocess, but helpful information or supplementary to drafts.  It may be good =
to have a series to explain key building blocks (protocols) or one for each=
 Area (or motivated WGs that want to advertise) in the IETF so people know =
what sessions would be interesting.  Including text (animations or slides) =
will be important for anyone whose first language is not English.

Thanks,

Subject: [Diversity] diverse geographic input (was: Re: blog post about div=
ersity)


On the topic of diverse geographic input. Another idea
might be to try to encourage someone who actually knows
(i.e. not me:-) to document some of the different realities
that apply in less well connected environments. If we had
some RFC(s) that described that well, then I think that
might be useful input to other protocol deign efforts even
while we work to increase the number of active participants
from under-represented regions. I'm not aware of another
source at the level of detail that'd be useful there. (Glad
to be pointed at one if it exists.)

If it helped to have a semi-official venue, the IRTF DTNRG
could be a place for that particular piece of work since
some DTN folks do try to address such challenged networking
environments. I'd also be happy to help out shepherding or
whatever as I'm sure would others regardless of venue.

And of course the obvious also now occurs to me - maybe the
previous ISOC fellows could be asked to start that ball
rolling, with help from a few folks more familiar with how
to get an RFC done.

	Seems like a good idea.

	Leaving in a very far away country with expensive and complex
traveling, with high speed internet that is not really very fast but
very expensive, etc. sometimes I see no empathy for that reality from
other IETF participants. Nevertheless it may be specific problems not
addressed because there is not interest (or it looks like it).

Sure. Might be another advantage to feeding some of
this particular bit of work via the IRTF who don't
have all the same constraints an IETF WG has.

I think one or more RFCs ultimately popping out
though might be desirable though as well.

	It doesn't have to be one or the other. We could do both.

	We cannot do everything in RFC and videos/podcast/alternative_media but
I think that this specific is possible.

	A good experiment by it self.

There certainly is interest!

I've been talking to a few folks about whether there would be interest and =
energy for a new IRTF RG focusing on - for the lack of a better term - "Int=
ernet challenges and solutions for emerging regions." Basically, a forum wh=
ere we can discuss the challenges the Internet is facing in those regions, =
and share experiences and proposals to successfully address some of those c=
hallenges.

This would be a slightly unusual IRTF group in the sense that it wouldn't n=
ecessarily have an academic focus, but instead be more of a discussion foru=
m to share real-world issues and solution ideas. But that's OK, my view of =
what IRTF groups can work on is very broad.

In order to make this group a success, it needs to be owned by and run by a=
 group of people from those emerging regions. Anything else would not work.=
 The good news is that there are obvious synergies with ISOCs Fellow Progra=
m, and the IRTF also has a small budget that could be used to fund some par=
ticipation/attendance.

I'd be thrilled to discuss this in more detail with interested folks. This =
list, however, is probably not the place for this. Contact me directly, and=
 maybe I'll set up a separate list under irtf.org. Also, anyone is obviousl=
y encouraged to share this email in any way they see fit - if we try to sta=
rt this group, we need to spread the word.

I think the ISOC folks are involved in a lot of outreach activities in
these less well connected environments. We can probably ask around to
see if someone can contribute such a writeup.

Brian Carpenter wrote this article in the SIGCOMM CCR a couple of years
ago that recommended considering RFCs as being equivalent to other
scholarly publications, but I am not sure if it gained any traction in
the academic community.

FWIW, impacts to standards (like RFCs from IETF) are highly appreciated =
in research projects, such as those funded by EU. However, perhaps the =
issue is that for the academic institution and the researcher's =
employment there, they do not count. Or at least do not count =
everywhere. Maybe Lars could work on getting at least IRTF RFCs accepted =
similarly as journal articles in some key institutions :-)

A number of organizations that I have been a member of has had gender
balanced co-chairs for all positions.  This is sometimes worked well,
and sometimes poorly.
(One such organization, a political party, by law, had to have a single
leader, treasurer and secretary, so we always had a deputy leader of the
opposite gender, and made treasurer/secretary a pair)

When it ran poorly my observation was that really it was two people that
simply didn't work together; it had nothing to do with gender.  We have
lots of cases already in the IETF where two WG co-chairs do not
communicate well enough.

I'd like to suggest that we ask Lynn to start by appointing nomcom
co-chairs.   Yes, finding one nomcom chair might be hard enough, but I
think it could be done.

The nomcom I've just been on had only a single female, which is really
the result of two things in my opinion:=20=20
  1) the nomcom eligibility requirement=20
  2) if we are going to encourage women to run for positions, they
     can not also be on the nomcom!

Or, if the input to the process had better gender parity, the randomness
ought to spit out a better result.  This matters only because nomcom chairs
are generally required to have been through the nomcom process, and with
the male bias in the members, the selection of chair is harder.  Looking
through the list of previous nomcom I see only one or two cmte that had
more than one woman, and several that had zero.

The second thing that I think the diversity design team should consider
is changes to the nomcom eligibility requirement such that the criteria
to remain nomcom eligible is much less than to become eligible.
In particular, we have no specific accomodation for remote participation
which we seem to want to encourage.

Hi,

I have a simple proposal.=20

When the RFC editor is about to publish a document, it should ask the =
author on which geography it wants to be identified by. Not to be =
published in the document but for keeping track of the statistics.

This is similar from when you are asked to identify your "race" in =
normal government form and you have the freedom to select the one that =
most represent you.

What is my point? I think Jari's graphs are misleading. They represent =
geographic diversity based on the region of the address in the document =
but not necessarily the geographic origin that the author would like to =
be recorder by. I give you an example, I wrote RFC 5963 while I was =
living in Uruguay but at time it was published I had moved to =
Switzerland and thus it is recorded as a European RFC. However, If =
asked, I would have identified myself as Uruguayan.

Similarly, there are hundred of Asian/SouthAmerican/African authors that =
currently live abroad but identifies it-selves by their country of =
origin and not of residency.

Roque

The definition of diaspora is: "people settled far from their 
ancestral homelands".  In simple terms people not living in a country 
can fudge geographic diversity statistics.  The diaspora might not 
have much in common with the country of origin.

Quoting Jari Arkko out of context [1]:

   "Overall participation is concentrated in some areas of the world, with
    little participation from Africa and South America, for instance."

What would the IETF get if there is more participation from South America [2]?

Regards,
-sm

1. http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/ietf/current/msg78379.html

2. I think that there is scope for more participation from South America.

CORRECTION: The list got created under irtf.org, i.e.:

Subscribe at https://www.irtf.org/mailman/listinfo/ericas and email the lis=
t at ericas@irtf.org.

Lars

(The list creation message I got from the system said it was created under =
both the IETF and IRTF domains, but apparently not.)

One thing that may help (from IETF side) is to cite in RFCs and/or I-Ds 
the research work e.g. papers that are done by IETF researchers, or 
their content being relevant to the technical scheme.

Citation is an important factor that matters to academic research.

My 2 cents,
Aaron

good point.

Biggest Fake Conference in Computer Science


We are researchers from different parts of the world and conducted a study on  
the worldâ€™s biggest bogus computer science conference WORLDCOMP 
( http://sites.google.com/site/worlddump1 ) organized by Prof. Hamid Arabnia 
from University of Georgia, USA.


We submitted a fake paper to WORLDCOMP 2011 and again (the same paper 
with a modified title) to WORLDCOMP 2012. This paper had numerous 
fundamental mistakes. Sample statements from that paper include: 

(1). Binary logic is fuzzy logic and vice versa
(2). Pascal developed fuzzy logic
(3). Object oriented languages do not exhibit any polymorphism or inheritance
(4). TCP and IP are synonyms and are part of OSI model 
(5). Distributed systems deal with only one computer
(6). Laptop is an example for a super computer
(7). Operating system is an example for computer hardware


Also, our paper did not express any conceptual meaning.  However, it 
was accepted both the times without any modifications (and without 
any reviews) and we were invited to submit the final paper and a 
payment of $500+ fee to present the paper. We decided to use the 
fee for better purposes than making Prof. Hamid Arabnia (Chairman 
of WORLDCOMP) rich. After that, we received few reminders from 
WORLDCOMP to pay the fee but we never responded. 


We MUST say that you should look at the above website if you have any thoughts 
to submit a paper to WORLDCOMP.  DBLP and other indexing agencies have stopped 
indexing WORLDCOMPâ€™s proceedings since 2011 due to its fakeness. See 
http://www.informatik.uni-trier.de/~ley/db/conf/icai/index.html for of one of the 
conferences of WORLDCOMP and notice that there is no listing after 2010. See Section 2 of
http://sites.google.com/site/dumpconf for comments from well-known researchers 
about WORLDCOMP. 


The status of your WORLDCOMP papers can be changed from scientific
to other (i.e., junk or non-technical) at any time. Better not to have a paper than 
having it in WORLDCOMP and spoil the resume and peace of mind forever!


Our study revealed that WORLDCOMP is a money making business, 
using University of Georgia mask, for Prof. Hamid Arabnia. He is throwing 
out a small chunk of that money (around 20 dollars per paper published 
in WORLDCOMPâ€™s proceedings) to his puppet (Mr. Ashu Solo or A.M.G. Solo) 
who publicizes WORLDCOMP and also defends it at various forums, using 
fake/anonymous names. The puppet uses fake names and defames other conferences
to divert traffic to WORLDCOMP. He also makes anonymous phone calls and tries to 
threaten the critiques of WORLDCOMP (See Item 7 of Section 5 of above website). 
That is, the puppet does all his best to get a maximum number of papers published 
at WORLDCOMP to get more money into his (and Prof. Hamid Arabniaâ€™s) pockets. 


Monte Carlo Resort (the venue of WORLDCOMP for more than 10 years, until 2012) has 
refused to provide the venue for WORLDCOMPâ€™13 because of the fears of their image 
being tarnished due to WORLDCOMPâ€™s fraudulent activities. That is why WORLDCOMPâ€™13 
is taking place at a different resort. WORLDCOMP will not be held after 2013. 


The draft paper submission deadline is over but still there are no committee 
members, no reviewers, and there is no conference Chairman. The only contact 
details available on WORLDCOMPâ€™s website is just an email address! 

Let us make a direct request to Prof. Hamid arabnia: publish all reviews for 
all the papers (after blocking identifiable details) since 2000 conference. Reveal 
the names and affiliations of all the reviewers (for each year) and how many 
papers each reviewer had reviewed on average. We also request him to look at 
the Open Challenge (Section 6) at https://sites.google.com/site/moneycomp1 


Sorry for posting to multiple lists. Spreading the word is the only way to stop

Hi
(I missed this discussion list so I will add my thoughts, sorry if this
message is long, I am working on my language to be efficient)

Is there other reasons for the results and conclusion the message [1] got
to? Is there something we can fix in the ietf-culture or
ietf-procedures to make the diversity more established? I think that
female managers/leaders are important to any world-organisation to get
successful, and to be specific, I will recommend all world NPOs
(Non-Profit Org.) need gender diversity (male or female, which one may
be minority) at *least* 10-20 percent of minority-gender management teams.
An NPO with all male or all female management is not successful for the
world of
diverse *gender* and *users*. Management skills if gender-diversed
will reflect better community involvement, choices, culture, and
decisions.

We need users to be diverse from different cities and different markets,
and from different origins/places of the world. As the Internet community
is changing every day increasing, but they may not use IETF. Who can the
IETF users work to make the IETF vision true.

 IMHO, Organisation Management objectives are to make 1) *users*
increase in numbers, 2) increase in diverse, 3) increase in
satisfaction, and 4) high quality RFCs applicable for the community. If
only present/current users select the management there is no dought that
their decisions reflect users-culture and awareness, but do they increase
the three objectives?

My concerns in the diversity issue is to focus on the diversity of
*management-gender* and *ietf-users* to benefit future decisions and
make *awareness* into the ietf-culture.
