I noted to Harald off-line that I think Canada would be an attractive 
choice for IETF meetings.  The tourism/conference biz is important to 
us, we're quite a bit cheaper than the U.S., and the border officials 
quite a bit softer-edged.  (To be fair to the U.S., we're also on fewer 
terrorist hit-lists).  I would think for something with the IETF's 
prestige, we might even be able to arrange a friendly nod from the 
Canadian feds, particularly if they could get a little marketing 
mileage out of the deal.
