Re: Update on feedback on US-based meetings, and IETF 102

[JORDI PALET MARTINEZ <[e-mail]>]

Hi all,

I’ve been pointed out in a private message that the last part of my sentence in the message below, could be interpreted as a disparage of the education of individuals in the IAOC.

I just want to apologize if somebody understood that, as it was clearly not my intend. The mistake comes from the way we are used to say “falta de educación” or “maleducado” in Spanish when somebody should have done something that he promised and didn’t that, as it is the case, and instead I should have used “impolite”.

This shows something that I believe most of the native English IETF participants usually don’t realize when having discussion (I’m referring here in general, also technical discussions) with non-native speakers, and how difficult is for the others. Maybe we should switch to Chinese as the default IETF language, or Spanish, as they have more speakers worldwide than English!

I’m still believe that IAOC attitude is not justified at all, and if we don’t have answers from them by next Monday, we should consider a recall process. Hopefully is not the case.

Regards,
Jordi

Well, for some countries what Trump said, has already been a fact, for example the prohibition to have computers on board. Is not that the case?

Whatever we want to decide, cancel SF or not, it may highly depend on budget, we like it or not. And that means that we need answers:

    If we cancel San Francisco, how much that is going to cost to the IETF for each of two planned meetings?
    
    Can we cancel the actual hotel contract considering the new US situation? If not, has this been considered for new contracts to avoid this problem?
    
    Otherwise there is any reason that can justify the lack of transparency in this?

The problem is so big for this community that I don’t even agree that the IAOC should take the decision. It must be a collective one, especially when the IAOC is demonstrating thru facts that they don’t care that we are discussing and wasting our time without the minimum relevant data, this is disrespectful and even more, not responding to emails since even since years ago, shows lack of education 

Regards,
Jordi
