Since you brought up the subject of hotel: up to now IETF hotel prices have 
been within the federal per diem allowance, but IETF82 seems an exception by a 
pretty big gap (see 
http://aoprals.state.gov/web920/per_diem_action.asp?MenuHide=1&CountryCode=1142,
 lodging allowance $186/day, a single room at Hyatt is $263/day with 10% tax)
