Remember last time you registered for an IETF meeting?

Does this ring a bell at all?

On the other hand, while the IETF site gets at least this right,
the majority of the listed sites that I'm checked or used also
manage to believe that "+" can't appear in an email local-part,
etc.

I don't use many of the sites on that list, but I've certainly found plenty of sites over the years that don't like '+'. Once upon a time, many of these would inexplicably permit '=', to the extent that it has become common to parse '+' and '=' the same way.

At least I have the good fortune to have an address that is unambiguous even without the '+'....
