IETF 114
Philadelphia and online
July 23-29, 2022
Hosted by Comcast NBC Universal

I am pleased to announce that registration is now open for IETF 114 and the 
preceding IETF Hackathon:

    https://registration.ietf.org 

IETF 114 will be a 7-day hybrid meeting on 23-29 July.  Agenda details for the 
IETF 114 meeting will be published on 24 June.  The IETF Hackathon [1] will be 
held 23-24 July.  Thanks to our host Comcast NBC Universal, we will have an 
awesome social event on the evening of 26 July [2].

As this is only our second hybrid meeting, you may wish to consult our detailed 
FAQ that aims to answer the main questions about travel, registrations, hotel 
bookings and the mechanics of onsite participation:

    https://www.ietf.org/how/meetings/114/faq/ 

The IETF 114 meeting venue is at the Sheraton Philadelphia Downtown.  As 
explained in the FAQ, you will need to register before you can reserve a guest 
room at the venue.  A link to reserve a guest room will be sent to you after 
you register.  Booking a different hotel does not require you to register first.

All participants, both onsite and remote, will need to use our remote 
participation service, Meetecho, in order to participate in IETF 114. For 
onsite participants, there will be an improved version of the Meetecho “Lite” 
app that provides contactless/paperless attendance recording (“blue sheets”), 
integrated onsite/remote queue management, chat integration and slide sharing 
features.

All IETF 114 participants will need an IETF Datatracker account in order to 
authenticate with Meetecho.  You can create a Datatracker account before 
registration [2] or as part of the registration process.

complete payment on your behalf.  You are not considered registered until 
payment is received. 


# Remote participation fee waivers

We understand that not everyone can afford the IETF 114 remote registration fee 
for a variety of reasons and we do not want any of these to be a barrier to 
participation.  For that reason, we make an unlimited number of fee waivers 
available to remote participants and operate on a trust basis, making no checks 
on eligibility.  If you are planning to participate remotely and cannot afford 
the registration fee then please take the fee waiver option:

   https://www.ietf.org/forms/114-registration-fee-waiver/


# Cancellation and changing registration

If you register for onsite participation and wish to change to an online 
registration then you can cancel with a full refund and re-register.  If you 
wish to cancel your registration for any other reason then we will provide a 
full refund.  Please request any cancellations and refunds by contacting the 
Secretariat at [email protected] before the cutoff time of UTC 23:59 2022-07-18.


# COVID management

For now, we are continuing with the same approach as taken for IETF 113 — we 
are following the local rules, but requiring that all IETF participants declare 
that they are fully vaccinated.  However, we recognise that this is still a 
rapidly evolving situation and so will begin a consultation soon on whether our 
COVID management approach should change.  This consultation will complete in 
time for people who want to wait for the outcome, to still register within the 
Early Bird period.


# Meeting t-shirts

Thanks to the generosity of the IETF 114 meeting host, Comcast and NBC 
Universal, registered participants, both onsite and remote, have the option to 
receive a free t-shirt with free delivery or collection onsite.  Limited 
quantities are available on a first-come, first-served basis.


# Childcare 

Thanks to the generosity of our Diversity & Inclusion sponsors, Cisco, Akamai, 
Huawei and Verisign, the IETF is offering limited onsite childcare, free to 
participants. Childcare services will be provided by Corporate Kids Events [4], 
a professional event childcare company. Participants with children ages 0-12 
are invited to take advantage of this opportunity, with childcare available 
Saturday, 23 July through Friday 29, July during the meeting day.  More 
information on this will be sent out very soon.
