The interesting thing is that the attendees ALSO pay for this.

Now I understand that the IETF needs to get its funding where it can  
find it, but it can hardly be a surprise that if you make two sets of  
people pay for the same thing and optimize for the convenience of one  
party, the other is unhappy.

However, the network is working just fine now (for me at least), and  
the strange funding structure of the IETF is not the fault of either  
the volunteers or the host, who are actually working very hard to make  
everything work within the constraints that have been set, so this  
might be a good point to end this discussion.
