Hi Alia, Our IETF 94 hub in Bangalore was quite successful. The makeup was made up of a few IETFers but mostly interested developers. In fact, some of the participants went on to attend and present in IETF 96 and took part in the Hackathon. They are also planning to join IETF 97 in Seoul.
I am on the look out for new blood to both organize/attend for IETF 97. Just a few thoughts - (1) WG champion: Having one or two WG champion at the Hub helped to set the tone, go over the WG agenda in advance, answer questions and continue the discussion after the WG meeting. (2) Discussions/Hot-Topics: Most participants can join remotely on their own from home/work. We need to make it worthwhile for someone to travel to the Hub, so it is important that we make sure that the hub can offer something more.... This could be a lively discussion, networking, side meetings on some HOT technology, tutorial etc. (3) Agenda - getting the IETF agenda early, would help a lot in making the sub-set agenda for the hub based on interest/timezone etc. This is just for the Hub in Bangalore, there have been other hubs in India targeting academia.
