With recent changes in the IETF and ways in which interested parties participate, there is a new push to re-evaluate the mechanisms that are provided for remote participation and working group meeeting archiving. For the past several years, two sessions have been multicast at two bit rates (low and high). These sessions have also been recorded and made available relatively soon after the meeting. More recently, experiments have been conducted in an attempt to add additional rooms with unicast support but only audio. At this point, we are at a cross-roads. Because of perceived changes in remote participant needs and funding availability, the IETF needs to decide what is needed in terms of service to users. Furthermore, an analysis needs to be done on what this service will cost and whether there is budget to support it. This BOF is a chance for the IETF community to discuss these issues in an open forum and help decide what our next steps should be in providing these services for future IETF meetings. To kick off the discussion, we will present a summary of the effort and resources involved in prior audio and video support and describe a few service options which might be provided in the future. We particularly would like to hear from past and current users of the IETF multicast/unicast services. Note that while jabber use has become much more prevalent recently and its use affects how distance participation works, using instant messaging in IETF meetings is not the focus of this BoF.
