I can help facilitate the event, why don?t you give it a try!
In the message that was quoted the person mentioned that:
"I understand that usually the place is chosen based on the most of
participant origin"
The person also mentioned explaining to students
that the IETF is open to them and that they can
participate. I believe that the person will not
be explaining that incorrectly.

exception with respect to getting documents adopted and published.
I wasn't unable to attend an IETF meeting some
time ago due to an administrative issue. The
proposal I intended to discuss about (it was
discussed during a session) was not
adopted. With hindsight I'll say that the
proposal would not have been adopted as I would
have made the mistake of not following IETF "culture".
