Hi The "one day pass" is a good idea and the conditions are very reasonable, actually I stumbled across this issue when I asked for a one day pass on behalf of one of my colleagues who wanted to attend only one session at the last IETF. $700+ USD for a 1.5h session is stiff, $200 is much more acceptable.
