How about 1 per year in North / South America, 1 per year in Asia /
Australasia and 1 per year in Europe / Africa ?
And, what will be accomplished by this suggestion?
And, what has been accomplished by the "GOER"s on the
meetings recently anyway?

As long as about 2/3 of the IETF attendees are from North

I have no problem with that. But, if 2/3 of 2/3 are from the
bay area, should this rule also apply? What's the point
to have a meeting in a freezer/midwest anyway?

One meeting a year outside the US seems fine to me.
No meeting is fine to me too. Or perhaps parallel meetings
in several region?

Lets hold the meetings in some of the poorer or more

What for? The IETF meetings are obviously not "developing
countries" friendly, and therefore fellows there who are
interested in voluntary work should go somewhere else.
There are obviously many other voluntary organizations
that are more color friendly anyway.

Hmm. I thought the Internet was for everyone.
Whoa! That is a marketing slogan from the big-pipe
providers (and perhaps big router companies) for
getting more $$$. No, the internet is only for the
ones who can afford it and use it.
