it was clean unfettered Internet.  some local folk stuck their necks out
very far to accomplish this.  it was definitely different than one got
outside of the ietf meeting network.  this has been a condition placed
on hosts and beijing was no exception.

This surprises me - "this has been a condition placed on hosts...". Could you enlighten us as to which [and I'll try to be precise here] other IETFs had a condition where the content accessible by the IETF network was markedly different from the content of say the network at a local Starbuck's equivalent wifi hot spot just down the street from the IETF and where that was mandated by the hosts and/or local laws? I mean besides Beijing? Key words "markedly different" and "content accessible".
