1.  If you have a better criterion that is equally practical to apply, feel 
free to suggest it.

2.  Although participation in the IETF does not require showing up at the 
meetings, any practical consideration of the job requirements will show 
that leadership of the IETF does.  So it helps to have some idea of what 
those meetings are about.  You can't have that idea concretely unless you 
go to the meetings yourself.
