Arguably at least the third...
Although I worked in the Arpanet environment in the 70s, I wasn't involved with
Internet issues until my first Internet meeting was as a graduate student, at
the IETF's predecessor group, in 1982 in Munich.
Attendance was probably between 1/20th and 1/40th of today's average
attendance...
The social was held at an abbey that had wonderful dark beer in 1 litre steins.
I discovered that it's best to drink only one, if flying home at 30,000 feet
the next day.
