The IESG, IETF LLC and IRTF Chair have decided to move the in-person IETF 112 Madrid meeting to a fully online meeting. This decision is based on the IETF Executive Director’s recommendation, which was made after conducting an assessment of local conditions using the criteria set out in the assessment framework developed with community input [1].
From our recent survey it is clear that the number of onsite participants will be well below the budgeted level, which is likely to lead to a significant financial loss, making an in-person meeting financially unviable. The results of the survey are available as an interactive dashboard [2]. The recommendation and full assessment are available at: https://www.ietf.org/media/documents/IETF_112_Madrid_go_no-go_assessment.pdf There will be a delay before the website and Datatracker are updated to reflect this decision. Further details about the online meeting will be shared as they become available.
