Interesting.
But have we had over 1,000 rooms in one venue in recent memory?
I looked back at old meeting invitation emails, and it seems of late the number
of rooms in the reserved block are generally not explicitly stated. It was more
common for older meetings. From those I can see:
IETF 77, Anaheim, 1,000 rooms
IETF 73, Minneapolis, 750 rooms
IETF 80, Prague, 600 rooms
But these were 5+ years ago. It may simply have become harder over time to get
such large blocks?
Looking at IETF 96 in Berlin, the InterContinental Berlin only has 558 rooms
and suites, and the Conrad Seoul for IETF 97 has 434 rooms.
