[Venue-selection] Fwd: Call for input: Venue assessment report for Portland, OR, USA

[Richard Barnes <[e-mail]>]

In brief: Portland would be a fine place for an IETF meeting.

I have attended multiple meetings in Portland, including one even larger
than an IETF meeting.  It's a pleasant city to visit, and the Hilton in
particular is a good meeting venue.

I was unsurprised that the venue assessment report was green on almost all
fronts.  On the two grey points: While Portland experienced some political
unrest during the 2020 George Floyd protests, it is generally safe and
stable.  Portland generally has an open and welcoming culture, regardless
of the factors listed in 6.1.
