The final report on the IETF Community Survey 2024 is now available [1] along with an accompanying blog post [2].
In December 2024 the fourth annual IETF community survey was distributed to all ~53,000 addresses subscribed to IETF mailing lists. This survey aims to deliver three outcomes: • A current size and demographic breakdown of the IETF community. • Data to inform the IETF community, particularly those in leadership roles, on what are some of the key issues affecting the IETF and why sometimes asserted issues are not actually issues. • A step in a time series of data that can be used to assess the natural changes affecting the IETF and the effectiveness of major programs, organisational changes and community/leadership actions. A draft report was published for consultation [3] in late April 2025 and minor changes made following feedback received, leading to today's publication of the final report [1]. A special thanks to the 1400+ people who responded to this survey, providing a rich data set.
