From immigrations pov. you do business if you sell or meet with the purpose to sell products.IOW attending an IETF meeting where you have discussions is not business.

    At least for us Hungarians there is. For tourists we do not need
      a visa, but for ANY business we do need a non-immigrant visa. 

      You might get away with visiting as a tourist, but I tried to do
      the correct thing.

      Is there a requirement to get a non tourist visa ? 
        For tourism you don't need a visa.

          Hello,

            

            This morning the Embassy of Thailand rejected my visa
            application as they found the invitation letter lacking.
            They sent me a 23 page template in Thai language that the
            invitation letter should follow.

            

            Have you had similar problems?

            

            regards Balazs
