Re: Admission Control to the IETF 78 and IETF 79 Networks

[Joel Jaeggli <[e-mail]>]

It has been the documented practice of the ietf meeting network operations to limit the amount of pii data collected in operation or experimentation and to destroy logs containing  pii data if they exist (example data collected by the IDS or formerly http proxy back when we ran one) after the meeting.

One can refer to the RFID experiment and discussion for another example of pii data handling in ietf experiments.
