For a long time, there was a fair amount of multicast debugging and
deployment that was driven / accelerated / or took advantage of the
IETF meetings being multicast. (On that note I wish that there was
still at least some multicast video going out from the IETF, say of
the plenaries.) I also remember that my first use of 802.11
technology was at an IETF meeting (Pittsburgh, IIRC) and IETF
meetings have been used to test MANET's on a wireless LAN. I'm sure
that there have been other cases over the years.
This is a good thing, I think, and should be supported and continued.

I don't know about others, but I always liked testing some new
technology at IETF meetings, but that seems less common these days.
