For example, several cities where the IETF has met recently - e.g. Prague, Berlin, Vienna, London, Paris - were not mentioned, yet Vancouver (where we have met many times, and are about to meet again) is listed in the "have been added to those assessed as suitable” list. So the list is a little confusing. In my email announcement I provided a link to the complete list as a numbered reference in the text to aid readability with the URL at the bottom of the message For reference that URL was https://ietf.org/how/meetings/admin/meeting-location-input/ Also, FYI, “Malta” is a country, not a city. (Presumably you mean “Valletta".) It’s also a little surprising that no cities in Australia or New Zealand are listed. (We met in Adelaide in 2000.) I would expect to see Sydney and Melbourne considered as potential venues, as well as possibly Brisbane, Perth, and Auckland (New Zealand). For the moment we are not accepting any recommendations for potential additions to the list until we have put some more transparent processes in place that help us manage the work. I hope that clarified things. Jay (who lives in New Zealand) -- Jay Daley IETF Executive Director |
