True.
But the visa issues seem to be the worst part of any US IETF. Travel, food and
finding a hotel are typically much easier in most US venues then European
venues.
People from Europe, Japan, Australia, and some other countries don't need a
visa at all to go to an IETF meeting in the US.

Hi,
I assume Hawaii has the same visa issues as the rest of US...
Of course, and the same heavily armed ICE agents. As an aside, the only
other place I've ever encountered armed border guards was at the

ICE? So, that's the reason why it takes forever to enter US. They use RFC 5245
at the border...

I guess the chinese (and other affected nationalities) can speak for
themselves, but as far as I know it is not that easy to get a US visa - even
with company backup etc. I have never heard about people having problems
getting a chinese visa, but maybe such problems exist also.

I would go so far as to say that getting a US visa seems easier than
getting one to China. Who are the people for whom it's easier to visit a
European country than it is to visit the US?
Umm, Americans? I have lived outside the US for

Personally I don't care that much where the meetings take place - I am
more interested WHEN they take place. For me it is the PEOPLE that
make a meeting good or bad - not the location. There are people
working in much worse conditions than we are, and still
they manage to
do a great job.

I should point out that Canada has most of the logistical advantages the usa
enjoys, while imposing quite a bit less visa pain.

I realise that this thread has moved on to a question of what RFC4985 means (and
I agree with the conclusions) but I thought that this post was about to raise a

That was in fact my original question.
Section 5.1 states that the source domain and service type MUST be
provided by a human user, and can't be derived. Yet in an SRV or
DDDS lookup, it is not the source domain that is derived, it is the
target domain. Given that, it's not clear to me what

Actually, based on my own experience, getting a Canadian visa is usually
*faster* than getting a US visa, but probably much more *painful*.
