G’day all,
This is interesting data. I am actually shocked that anyone would even consider travelling to Atlanta in September for an IEEE 802 meeting (except possibly those living in Atlanta). Clearly some do not recognise
the severity of the situation the world is facing right now.
You all know the data, the world is not yet in recovery mode and there are few signs of sustained recovery (except possibly in New Zealand)

Globally COVID-19 is spreading faster than it has at any time since the start of the pandemic
o
This is also roughly the case in the US
·
The global death rate seems stuck at ~4.5k per day
The best way of summarising the advisory of international travel (on basis we are an international SDO) is to examine at the travel advisories of various countries:
·
US: level 4, do not travel
·
Australia: entry & exit banned
·
UK: advises against all but essential international travel
·
Canada: avoid all non-essential travel outside of Canada
·
…
I believe that IEEE 802 should not even consider holding any F2F meetings until the level of these advisories have significantly reduced. The health of our members (and everyone else) is too important to risk for
the sake of progressing an IEEE 802 standard slightly faster.

Paul,
The numbers in your chart are basically correct (though it looks like your denominator excluded the "never" answers; that's a minor issue).
I would summarize the cumulative results this way:
|
|
2020-09
|
2020-11
|
Q1 2021
|
Q2 2021
|
Late 2021
|
2022+
|
|
North America
|
19%
|
35%
|
74%
|
87%
|
96%
|
99%
|
|
Asia
|
3%
|
35%
|
57%
|
71%
|
90%
|
98%
|
|
Europe
|
16%
|
30%
|
60%
|
77%
|
94%
|
99%

I would say that this is the closest we have to an expected turnout ratio given a region and date.
By comparison, regarding the question about the Sept 2020 session: 84 people (25%) said "absolutely" or "very likely". That's not necessarily a contradiction with the table. I calculated that 33% of the surveys answered "2020-09" to "When is the earliest you
can attend a session?" for at least one region.
I think we could also speculate about how the sample is skewed. My guess is that the responses skew toward more active participants and that less active ones were less likely to participate. I see that responses indicate having attended an average of 4.12
sessions out of the last 7; that's a rough gauge of activity, but we could look more closely at the details.

Thank you for preparing and compiling the survey results. Based on a quick review of the results, it appears no more than 248 (~75% of the 334 respondents) would attend a face to face session until Q1 2021 in a
North American venue. See graph below. The numbers are similar for Asia and Europe. Please confirm my numbers are correct.

hey Roger,
thanks so much for the time you put on this, interesting on many fronts.
you may want to check the formulas on the summary tab for first time to NAM. they look to be identical to first time to Asia.
fyi
I've compiled the results of the IEEE 802 Session Attendee Survey:
https://mentor.ieee.org/802-ec/dcn/20/ec-20-0114-00-00EC.xlsx
You'll see three tabs: one for the full data, one for the summary results, and one for the compiled free-form text responses.
If you want to see the summary results for a subset of the data (e.g., a limited number of WGs), you can delete the rows you want to ignore. I found that simply hiding those rows does not remove them from the counts. If you know a better way to present the
results, you can consider sharing an updated version.
