I am not sure I understand. If you mean that the IASA's aim is to deliver engineers from day-to-day administrative stuff such as printing badges for the meetings, OK. But if you mean that IETF "non-members" should stay away from important policy-related things like the dispute resolution process or the very nature of the IETF (incorporated or not, in a country or another, etc), then, I would certainly disagree. _______________________________________________ Ietf@xxxxxxxx https://www1.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
