Perhaps we should follow the example of Oxford and Cambridge and make them sit at a different table and do menial tasks for the Gentlemen students. Oh wait, they abolished that in the 19th Century. The IETF business model certainly has problems, but the proportion of attendees paying for meetings is not one of them. The problem with a business model based on conference fees is that conferences are cyclic. If I was running ICANN I would observe that my organization directs a vast cash flow but a very narrow political constituency. I would therefore look to funnel some of that cash flow into organizations that can enhance my political position.
