The host requiring us to wear badges can be read as the host being
asked to ensure that individuals can be easily identified and thus
held accountable for what they say. I'm not saying that's happened
here. I accept Ray's explanation that the host noticed freeloaders
and acted to address that problem. Eliot On 11/12/10 6:59 AM, Eric Burger wrote: As far as I know, anyone with an email and a credit card can come to an IETF meeting. Anyone without an email and an ability to pay the registration fee cannot come physically to an IETF meeting, but can still participate over the Internet. It is an incredible stretch to say checking badges at an IETF is a free speech issue.
