Returning to known-good venues is a good plan. Ones like Berlin
and Prague are especially good as they cater well for those who
hardly leave the venue all week as well as for those who are
involved only in specific things that allow them more free time.
(And that latter group is hugely important as I'd bet almost all
of the former group started out in the latter group.)

9 years is too far ahead to know for sure that we'll have the
same kind of 3 x 1400-people meetings per year. I'd be surprised
if that's the case in 2024 to be honest, but it could be. I'm
not sure how best to handle that but I'd be against an arrangement
that forced the IETF to keep doing the same kind of meetings that
far ahead. If there's an acceptable way to get changes agreed
every 2 years or so that'd be ok though. I'm fine that the IAOC
figure out what they consider acceptable, but would prefer that
as much as possible of that be visible to the community before
final agreements are reached.
