Here's a modest suggestion. At https://www.ietf.org/meeting/100/index.html, even though there is a "Registration" link under "Remote Participation", it isn't apparent that this is a required step. This is made clear behind the "Info" link. So if the "Registration" link was removed, and "Info" link renamed as "Start Here", people would not miss the registration step. (The same applies to https://beta.ietf.org/how/meetings/100/ of course.)
