There was no place for comments on the "breakfast question".
I think an important criterion is not just whether the CONTRACTED HOTEL provides breakfast, but whether, in addition, the OTHER HOTELS IN THE AREA where IETF-ers are likely to stay, provide breakfast.
If we are in a city where MOST HOTELS include breakfast, then it is fine to not provide breakfast at the meeting.
But if it is ONLY the "contracted hotel" that provides breakfast, and the other hotels do not, then I think that the meeting should provide at least SOME breakfast items.
