Given each IETF has 1200-ish delegates, paying $500US, there is $600K dollars to hand for IETF. How about removing some of those ghastly fattening breakfast/break pastries and replacing them with the more basic breads that always disappear first in the morning, and using the savings towards wireless? :) [Getting a healthy breakfast/snack in the IETF corridors is a separate thread...:] The wireless is something we will have a growing dependency on; there were many sessions that had no jabber log due to the failing network, nor could attendees in the room see comments from remote participants/friends.
