I'd like to add one additional comment as an IAOC member (but not
speaking for the IAOC). I think we, the IAOC and meetings committee,
can and should do better on transparency of meeting requirements,
selection process, and contracts. I'm hoping to see some progress on
this before/by BA.

The other question that has been on my mind is whether or how we
continue to meet as a community. In my personal opinion, one of the
most important things about the IETF *is* the community and having the
opportunity to engage one on one. I go to IETF meetings for hallway
conversations as much as anything else. But — in the span of the next
10 years, it’s not clear to me if we can or should find non-meeting ways
to achieve those effects, and get our work done.
Absent discussion within and direction from the community on where it
thinks we’re headed on that front, I (as an IAOC member) was not
comfortable with agreeing to hotel commitments 8+ years out. It is my
understanding that we, in fact, have the ability to cancel the contract
for IETF 111 with a survivable penalty a few years out. I.e., it’s a
good deal for current course and speed, and if that changes
significantly before we get to the 3 year window, we have the ability to
reorganize.
I realize that doesn’t address all of the issues you raised, but
hopefully it helps at the broad-brushstroke level.
Leslie.
