    • Reducing IETF Meeting Scheduling Conflicts

      With many IETF participants active across a number of active working groups and limited time slots in an IETF meeting week, we aim to arrange sessions in the agenda to minimize conflicts that prevent participants from joining sessions that are of interest to them. In each post-meeting survey we ask meeting participants to comment on the scheduling conflicts they experienced in the meeting agenda and we then use this information to improve the meeting agenda.

    IETF Administration LLC Completes 2020 Financial Review

    • Sean TurnerIETF LLC Board Treasurer

    24 Jun 2021

    The IETF Administration LLC Board of Directors has received a clean result for its 2020 stand-alone annual financial statement.

    The “unqualified audit opinion” presented to the Board indicates that the IETF LLC financial statements were fairly and appropriately presented, without any identified exceptions, and in compliance with the generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). This follows on the unqualified result the IETF LLC received for the first-ever review of its 2019 financial statement. Last year presented a special challenge as the 2020 annual budget was reforecast due to the global pandemic. This excellent result is due to work by the IETF Secretariat team and IETF LLC Executive Director Jay Daley.
