Patrik, This has been mentioned several times. Let me make an observation about ICANN meetings. Especially in recent years, they are very political. Especially in smaller or less developed countries, they usually occur at the invitation of the government or with the fairly explicit permission and involvement of the government. Part of selective enforcement (see Melinda's recent note) is that attendees at such meetings are rarely messed with unless their behavior is impossible to ignore and sometimes not then. ICANN is further down that scale than actual UN or diplomatic meetings: I've been in countries where, had I come (to tried to come) as, e.g., a tourist or random meeting attendee, I would have been a prohibited person but, because I was traveling on UN papers, I had great confidence that no one was going to interfere with me. Singapore, for better or worse, has a well-established reputation as a rather pragmatic place. Because of the above, an attendee at an ICANN meeting is less likely to be interfered with than, e.g., one at an APNIC or Apricot one. I suspect the latter are less likely to be interfered with than an IETF attendee just because of different relationships between the organizations and their members and the long-term interests of the country. An IETF attendee is less likely to be interfered with than a permanent resident of the country. But the laws are there, they are apparently intermittently enforced, and no IETF participant should need to worry about whether they or their families are going to be in the wrong place at a time when a hotel staff member or law enforcement official is having a bad day (or an attack of religious or other zeal) and looking for someone to take it out on. I could also note that ICANN, given the view of its role by some of its leadership in recent years, had found it desirable or necessary to cozy up to some of the world's more problematic autocratic regimes. Whether side deals are made with those regimes or not, that behavior certainly should not set a standard for the IETF to follow. john
