Yes. The basic idea is this: - if you want to provide feedback about a particular venue -- especially one that the IASA has asked about, please send your remarks to venue-selection@xxxxxxxx. If you wish to see things others have said about venues, you can do so by reading the archives at https://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/venue-selection/current/maillist.html, but please note that it is not a discussion list. - if you want to discuss how the IETF should select meeting locations and so on, please take your remarks to the mtgvenue@xxxxxxxx mailing list, which is the mailing list for the Meeting Venue working group. That WG is developing (and is very close to done developing) the selection criteria for IASA to use when picking venues. I believe (speaking only for myself) that those consensus documents will be binding on the IASA in choosing places to meet. I note that it was the list I failed to mention explicitly in the plenary last night. - if you think that the IAOC is failing to ensure that the necessary mechanisms are in place for the community to make its views known, please send that feedback to iaoc@xxxxxxxx. Note that feedback of the form, "The IAOC should _do_ $thing," is not that useful, because the IAOC is supposed to provide oversight (that's the "O"), not do things. A (speaking for myself). -- Andrew Sullivan ajs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
