Agree with Jeff.  Let's clear out on different visa processes and then hopefully decide.  On the separate note, I would love to see an IETF taking place in India.  We would get an enormous number of local participants who typically don't attend IETF.

I've traveled to India twice on e-visas.  Once I found a good place to do the process, it was fairly straight forward.

The instructions you find in various places to do this process are massively contradictory and confusing.

Given how much noise there was around the Thailand visa stuff, we'll want to get the conflicting information streamlined if we're considering India.
