If this is accepted then the IETF should consider accepting remote
participants' ID to be discussed in meeting when authors request a
slot
while they are not able to attend. Providing a slot for remote work is
good
to connecting the meeting with new authors that are remote
participants.
Therefore the increase in registration fees will not affect
international new work discussed in ietf meetings.

need to raise them due to increasing costs.
