In a situation like this no one can be sure what you are dealing with, so a few precautions to ensure you are not a bot! It's also a high profile session... if you are not able to turn on camera before you begin to speak, how easy will it be after you do? 

Some few not so common etiquette or requirements but necessary! anyway

Bill and all,
 
I noticed that there was a queue of people who were raised to panelist – the instructions from the Tech Envoy staff could have been clearer, apparently you had to turn your camera on for them to actually acknowledge you even after being raised to panelist. I guessed this would be the case since it was so during the zero draft consultations as well.

Thanks, that’s interesting.  So you and the others who were called on turned your cameras on as soon as you were added to the queue?  I made an intervention at the April meeting and know I didn’t sit there with the camera on for an hour until she said that I was next, so not sure why this was different.  

Even if this was the issue in terms of what the co-facilitators could see, the TE staff presumably knew who they’d manually added to the queue, so I don’t get why they said nothing when she announced there was nobody waiting.

Anyway,

Bill
