The corporate name on my nametag is there only because I filled that field

When a corporation sends a representative to the IETF and their business
is network or network impacted anything then that party is deriving
benefit from the participation of that representative.

So in the interest of disclosure ALL of the members of the IETF have the
right to know who is paying for everyone elses participation. Work for
Hire law makes their actions 'on behalf of the sponsor' no matter what
pretty much and as such there is a legal and ethical responsibility to
disclose that information fully IMHO.

Besides, the corporation name is there not because Check Point has "bought"
the IETF, but so that if I say that everyone should use a firewall, people
will take that with the appropriate grain of salt.




Affiliations are normally listed on IETF documents and badges for the
purpose of assisting in identifying the person so affiliated.

Anyway, if we're raising money for the IETF, someone should have made IETF
77 T-shirts for sale. They last longer than green dots, and give you
bragging rights.

Just after note well.


Right, but some working groups will have multiple offers for
sponsorship.

Should there be a premium charge for the more popular working groups?

There also might be some spoofing, where someone pays to have /you/
listed as
sponsor of the wg.  That leads to the possibility of your paying for a
de-listing...
