I fully agree with Michael that fully enfranchising all active IETF
participants, whether or not they're able to physically attend IETF
meetings, is the right goal, and SM's draft is a good step in this
direction.

Perhaps having registered for the past n of x IETF meetings, for your
favorite values of n and x, is a reasonable way to discern an active IETF
participant. An additional requirement could be, for remote registrations,
actually having logged into Meetecho at least once during a meeting as
proof of participation.

That would require anyone planning a "DOS attack" on the system via bogus
registrations needing to do quite a bit of advance work.

Cheers,
Andy
