RE: [Recentattendees] Background on Singapore go/no go for IETF 100

["Mani, Mehdi" <[e-mail]>]

Dear all,

As an european holding a french passport with my origin coming from Iran i cannot travel to US with this executive order of Mr Trump even if i work for an American company.

So i beleive as well that meeting venues should not be any more in US with such à discriminatory law.

Regards
Mehdi

If we include such a cancellation clause, we should also have an insurance contract to cover the non-refundable cost such as flights and hotels that some participants book 1 year in advance in order to have it cheaper.

The next IETF in the US after Chicago, would be in July 2018 in SF. I don't think it's even possible to buy a flight ticket for that time as of now (most airlines wouldn't do such pre-sale). So, it's pretty much possible to relocate that meeting elsewhere with causing no loss to anyone's already-made plans.

    James,

    Seeing as the email you chose to quote was a response to my email from May 27th, 2016, I’m left trying to decide if you were responding specifically
     to my comments or that earlier thread in general. I still stand by my statements even if it means that the ultimate IETF decision is not to hold meetings in the USA – I think your prognostication unfortunately was correct. I was not being rhetorical in my
     earlier comments – We, as participants engaged in technical efforts across national boundaries need to figure out pragmatic ways of ensuring our efforts and activities continue to function despite decisions by specific localities.

    Looking forward, it might be reasonable for IETF to include a cancellation clause based on the government of the host country engaging in an act like the ban
     (after the contract has been signed.)

    Mike

    I rescind my previous comment that the scenario I painted is rhetorical.



    None of our US fellow IETFers here have any moral authority to talk about "inclusive" ever again.

    Since after 9-11, things have change a lot for United States[1].



    Especially for TSA, I remember going to SFO the first time after 9-11, it took me 2 hours just to clear the security and I missed my flight. I also remember pre 9-11, I could get into US for
     less than 15-20mins.



    Now, for my American friends who pay in the price in time, let me tell you what we non-American citizen has to do to get into US after 9-11. We have been tagged, photographed, fingerprinted,
     all our 10 fingers every time we have to enter US. We have been systematically profiled, often by racial or nationality, and some of us have to go through enhanced body-to-body search everytime we cross security. I was put in a "Muslim" basket been a Malaysian
     for a while so ... And we have to do it with a smile because if any of us pull of a stunt like Aaron Tobey[2], we could be denied our entry and possibility forever.



    My wife complains that the over the last decade I have put on a lot of weight and asked me to check my photos. Unfortunately, I don't like selfie nor do I like to take pictures of myself. But
     I told her not to worry as TSA has a complete profile of me becoming fat over the years.



    Today, we all saw a US President may-to-be calling up to forbid Muslim to enter US, to build walls to prevent people from the south, who threaten to get even tougher to foreigners.



    So by the same principle that Jeff is advocate, that we hold IETF meeting where "law declares some people less valid", I prognosticate we may no longer able to hold our meetings in US.

    Jeff,

    Is there any country in the world that meets the standard your comment implies should be the IETF policy? Is this a case of perfection being the enemy of good? Perhaps it is a case of perfection being the enemy of reality. I don't know what IETF policy should
     be but I do recognize that there are very real limitations that constrain choices. I'll also point out that the choices made will constrain the choices of participants. I'm not advocating for any particular choice by the IETF with regard to meeting locations.

    Mike
