Very good point.

Significant advantage comes from any kind of co-authoring with someone who is 
able to bring another perspective.  By region, by academic/commercial interest, 
by vendor/operator role, by amount of time you have been around in the IETF, by 
IETF area focus, etc.  (Fostering diversity is a lot about adding perspectives, 
and getting that right into the author team will allow it to make early impact.)

Now, if you come from a region sparsely populated with IETFers, that may make 
co-authoring with people outside your region a particularly good idea.
