I'm not sure I'd blame chairs so much, but anyway...
Here's a suggestion - create a list for people who are active
IETF participants but who miss a lot of meetings. (And ask people
who don't match that profile, like me, to stay out of the
discussion - we can read the archive if we're curious.)

Melinda,
It can indeed be challenging, but in some circumstances, the active
participants of the working group don't quite span the globe. I've also found
that audio conferences seem most effective if they only last an hour or maybe
90 minutes, but are held more regularly, rather than marathon on-line
