[WEG] I've been serving as a Jabber scribe in multiple sessions this week (including in my own WG when we couldn't get a volunteer in a reasonable timeframe). What has occurred to me is that there are really no instructions on *what* one should be doing as a scribe or a note-taker, and so it is intensely variable based on the volunteer. I learned by being in jabber and seeing what others do. As far as jabber, I've heard more than one chair explain that it means "watch the room for comments, post the link to the slides, notify when they advance to the next slide (especially fun when the slides don't have numbers... chairs??!). It's not clear if jabber scribes are supposed to be identifying who is speaking (for when it's hard to understand the person's name), doing near-realtime transcription/summarization of comments or presenters (when they aren't simply reading the slide bullets to us, that is), or if that's the job of those taking notes. We need to decide what the jobs are, and make it clear to volunteers what we expect - something we can point them to when they volunteer that explains it shortly and clearly. There is likely to be some overlap assuming other tools are in place (webex, meetecho, etc), but those probably are the baselines. Do we have to write a formal BCP? I'd rather something shorter without all the boilerplate, but I'm not sure if there's a method to do that.
