Hi Avri, While I personally agree with all this, I'm not sure we should go so far as strict MUST NOT ... Reading the rest of the comments, I think the conclusions are something like (not necessarily contiguous text in a single place in the document, so needs to be coherently integrated): The productivity of working groups in IETF meetings is very important, this means that the "ideal" venue should try to facilitate good participation from frequent WG contributors and lots of local participation (newbies which often want to participate again in the future and become our next generation of contributors). The working environment should enable to do our business without too much hassle. For instance, toughness of visa criteria and/or length of process, excluded contributors are factors. The average time required to apply for & issue a visitor visa suitable for a short-term visit for the IETF business need to confirmed. If is not predictable in advance and measurable in small numbers of months, that itself is a barrier to participation to be seriously considered, together with the cost of that process. Special considerations must be made by the IAD in case the visa requirements are so stringent as to make it impossible or even extremely difficult for some participants to attend. The rotation of locations for the increased participation of new people is also very important. Is expected that the country hosting the IETF meeting should not restrict the participants freedom of expression, for example by blocking web sites or redirecting dns which may be required during the meeting for usual participants business, censoring of personal communications, blocking of VPN/SSH and other similar practices. It is also a barrier to be seriously considered if local participants attending the IETF could be under pressure to support national technical policies on threat of imprisonment or other punitive actions, for their opinions. Finally, it should be possible for local participants to attend the meeting without any special government approval. Otherwise, the venue does not support the increased local participation, which is one of the goals for this criteria. Comments ?
