BTW, I found that like with many previous IETF meetings, if you call
your local travel department, they can often get far cheaper rates for the
rooms at the hotel. For some reason, the IETF "negotiates" rates that seem to
be MSRP. For this one, for example, I got something like a %40 discount on the
IETF rate.

But that was then and now is now 8->. One could simply say "suck it up".

May I point out that there has been a survey on the topic and the
community
expressed a clear preference for Quebec over other Canadian cities,
knowing
that travel would be longer and the number of cheap alternative hotels
smaller.

There appears to have been a collective retreat from reality that day.
