ICANN apparently sends so much stuff to their meetings that it fills
several shipping containers.  We learned this several meetings ago
when one of the containers got lost.  A quick look at the ICANN budget
suggests that even though they are roughly the same size as our meetings,
typically 1000 people, they cost twice as much.  (This is the cost.  Their
meeting revenue is deliberately zero so it's not comparable.)

I'm pretty sure this is not a direction that the IETF would like to go.

R's,
