The IAOC remains committed to soliciting input on future IETF meeting
locations. While we await updated community guidelines for meeting selection
as an outcome of the MTGVENUE discussion, we also need to be able to move
forward with meeting planning future years.
With this mail, we are soliciting input on a broad list of potential IETF
locations. Our intention is to identify the most promising sites and aim to
keep our meeting planning scoped to those cities for now.
First, we would like to first confirm whether people perceive any reasons we
could not have a successful meeting in any of the cities we have visited in the
last 3 years, or for which we currently have announced meetings in the coming
years (EXCEPT for Singapore).

. http://www.ietf.org/meeting/upcoming.html
Please send input to [email protected]. It will help the review process
if the Subject line had the name of the city first, Subject: <city>.
As there are some cities on that list for which we already have contract
opportunities, city-specific input would be most helpful if received by June
28, 2016.
Second, we would like feedback on some of the new cities we have had under
consideration more generally. We seek community input on reasons we could not
have a successful meeting in any of the following cities, or of any limits to
attendee accessibility or inclusiveness that should be considered:
Bangkok
Daejeon
Hong Kong
Macau
Madrid
Sydney
Again, please send input to [email protected]. It will help the review
process if the Subject line had the name of the city first, Subject: <city>.
For these cities, input would be most helpful if received by July 15, 2016.
As a reminder, [email protected] is a dropbox e-mail address: its
archive is publicly visible, but subscription is not available.
Thanks,
Leslie, for the IAOC.
