Not really. They have a site that already supports this, should work, but is not working for a couple of days ... and some of us travel and don't have extra time neither resources (already using our personal time and paying our expenses for IETF from our own pocket) to use phone or fax when it could be done by email or on-line.
We should also remember that the people don't comes just from US. When I called they (not very kindly) suggested me if I can call back in 6 hours (!!!!!) because registration services doesn't work so early. Incredible, this is having fun and supporting international guests. Just quality, hopefully not the same we will get when we are in the meeting. Anyway, if they want the business, they should make sure that this is working and I'm sure IETF Secretariat is kind to take care of those small details in order to facilitate the participation of the people. Of course, is only my opinion ... but is comparable as having our web site supporting IPv6 ... is surprising to me that we don't make sure to use our own protocols and show to the rest of the world that what we do, just works. I recall something about "running code" ;-) ?
