one thing, the first thing we would have to do in the IETF -
if we adopted a model like this - is to establish a marketing
over-sight function to ensure fair and equitable disposition
of sponsorship funds.
Eric, I am not sure why this would be required.
The IETF already takes in money for events and spends money for events. The
change would be that a host also does this and we would, instead, have the host
give the money to the IETF/ISOC funds pot for events. I would think that
management of the larger pot of IETF event funds would not require any
additional mechanisms.
