And list participants that behave. From my p-o-v that is a real
plus for jabber - people act as if they're in a meeting, which
we don't all always do with email.

That's overstated IMO. Jabber has worked pretty well, except in
a couple of cases. (But you are on record as not liking it, and
for good reasons, I acknowledge.)

If there were support for something like that I'd be willing, but I
suspect it might also generate opposition and as Dave said it puts
a big burden on the moderator.

I'd like us to stick with the jabber sessions for the next few
weeks and we can discuss it in San Diego (and on the list) and
maybe change modus operandi when we finish the ssp-reqs.
