Brian,

Could you or Ray or the Secretariat clarify one aspect of this? 
Is the 'free Internet' deal associated with the specific days 
that IETF was meeting or with the overall stay (I know people 
who arrived a week ago today; I know people who don't leave 
until Sunday or Monday).  And, if it is the meeting dates, what 
is the agreed-upon range... e.g., should people who are here 
until Saturday morning expect to be billed for one or more 
nights of Internet service?

And, if this is not clear, might I hope that I can suggest that 
the IAD and IAOC consider the issue of defining this carefully 
and to cover the full length of IETF-associated stays for future 
meetings and contracts without setting off a huge flap?

     john
