I'm also aware that we keep holding meetings in the US and that some participants didn't find Canada a whole lot better this time around. And I'm also aware that Israeli passport holders have absolutely no chance of getting visas for some of the locations that have been discussed recently, no matter how much they participate in the IETF or how long in advance they apply. So I'd personally think that issue should be in the "tradeoff" category, rather than the "showstopper" one. john _______________________________________________ Ietf mailing list Ietf@xxxxxxxx https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
