I might not be fully up-to-date on our sponsoring process, but as I
understand it, a meeting sponsor pays for a fraction of the direct
costs for a given meeting. Other organizations charge a sponsor a
flat amount that is based on costs that are averaged over multiple
meetings. Yes, that means that sponsors of meetings in cheaper
locations subsidize meetings in more expensive ones, but it also
makes it financially irrelevant to the sponsor which exact meeting
they support.
By the way, is there another mailing list for us to move this
discussion to? Does the IAOC have an open list?
You can follow IAOC activity from the minutes at http://iaoc.ietf.org/minutes/iaoc_minutes.html
Ooops, the latest minutes posted are from March 1st.
I forgot to reply to this before, so here is a catch up reply.
We are aware that we are behind on publishing the minutes. There are
reasons for that, but the good news is that a batch of minutes are in
the process of being approved by the IAOC and should be published
shortly.
This again gives me the opportunity to solicit for volunteers to acts
as scribes for the IAOC....
