Mary, Given the diversity of IETF participation, we can be assured that there are representatives for almost any point of view. So, yes, I'm sure that some folks have no empathy or sympathy for the plight of others with culinary constraints. But I think it is clear that that is not a dominant, or even significant, constituency within the IETF. Rather, I believe the issue is merely one of practicality. Some needs are easily accommodated. Some are not. Where more information is needed, the kind of discussion you are planning could be quite helpful. But there are practical limits. Limited resources and priorities to juggle. That's why I ended by noting the considerable strategic benefit that accrues from placing the IETF somewhere with rich local resources: It can offload the IETF machinery from some considerable burdens. No matter how accommodating a hotel's staff might wish to be it, too, has resource constraints. d/ Mary Barnes wrote: > I have no doubt that if everyone was impacted in such a way (i.e., no > suitable meal for over 12 hours during the day) that folks would expect ... > I do realize that for folks that don't have these limitations, the whole > idea that this requires ANY discussion seems quite trite and whiny, but ... > -----Original Message----- > From: Dave CROCKER [mailto:dhc@dcrocker.net] ... > So, striking a reasonable balance between the two is the interesting > challenge. > > d/ > > ps.
