I think this is good advice, though, of course, IANAL. It means you're not lying to the immigration officer, for one, nor misleading them in any way. The fact that we call these "meetings" helps. If they ask more questions, you can explain more, and no detail will show you to have been lying earlier. It also denotes a) that this meeting has no competition-with-locals angle, and b) that it's the sort of meeting that brings the host country prestige ("international technical standards" -> good, right?). Above all it's important that the immigration officer understand that under no circumstance are you getting compensated for speaking at the meeting, and that all your compensation is as normal for your day job in your country of residence (though, obviously, you may be getting your travel costs covered by the same employer). Protectionism is the real reason for the "are you coming to work here [competing with locals]?" line of questioning, and it is and should be absolutely clear that IETF meetings simply don't involve any competition with locals anywhere. IANAL, Nico --
