To be fair, so might the meeting rooms (audio equipment, projectors,
etc.). Perhaps in this instance the hotel was concerned about theft of
such equipment. However, we don't know why the policy was so strictly
enforced this time, nor whether the IAOC or the Secretariat was asked to
do so by the hotel or by the local host. And if people don't know the
cause they begin to speculate.

When might the IAOC be able to provide a definitive answer?
