<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt">Yes, we did! The IETF pivoted in March 2020 to fully virtual with 701 remote attendees. That continued for 2 years until March 2022 when we started having in-person again – and since that time they have been
hybrid (and will continue to be so). The IETF also invested quite a lot in <a href="https://www.ietf.org/how/meetings/technology/meetecho-guide-participant/">
online meeting tools</a> & supporting systems to try to make the remote experience as good as possible. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
