Similar to IETF-67, which moved from Europe to San Diego, we're
again moving a meeting that was planned to happen in Europe to North
America.
Looking at IETF-60 to IETF-70, 8 out of the 10 IETFs were in North
America. I'd be good if we could re-balance this in the future.
+1.
Maybe I should elaborate. In several WG where I am active at least half
of participants are from Europe or Asia.
Not all of them are working for companies that can sponsor them to go to
IETF meetings or at least many employers are reluctant to send people to
IETF meetings happening across the ocean (no doubts, this works the same
way for North American). So having IETF meetings in Paris and Prague was
very useful to get such people more involved.
