  That's pretty much it.

  I found the conference centre pretty good, generally. I would return. It
always seems a shame to go a nice city for IETF and not see much of it, but
I've realized that this is fine - I'm not usually in a mood for vacation 
at an IETF anyway. This is why many of us find Minneapolis just fine - hotel
seems to get it now, we know where all the food is, and the terminal room
cables are pre-cut.
