Ray, While we are on the subject of reservation cancellations, I've noticed the innovation of a cancellation fee for actual meeting registrations, even if they are cancelled long in advance. I can understand such a fee if cancellations well before the registration cut-off cause the Secretariat administrative time or other aggravation (such as processing credit card refunds for payments). But those costs are presumably fixed and fairly low -- pegging them to a non-trivial percentage of an ever-rising registration fee seems excessive unless the Secretariat and/or IAOC see cancellations as a "revenue opportunity". Could you comment? thanks, john _______________________________________________ IETF mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
