tomaz,

the problem is that doing the technical work in a room of
300 people is just terribly hard and frankly, I don't see
that visitors get much benefit. INET is a better venue for
that. Of course IETF is open and should remain so - but
I think pragmatics count for something here - of course,
others may disagree.
