That is, arguably looking like the safest, reasonable line of advice.
However for an organization like the IETF that seeks to meet in a
variety of places around the globe, things could get even more
challenging if there is a pattern of retaliatory actions by other
countries, against visitors from the US.

the US' question of leaving for a meeting and having problems returning
to the US.)
It is fast looking as if the ability to sustain a large and very
well-attended network of interconnected remote hubs might become a
necessity rather than merely an appealing alternative...
