[governance] Multistakeholderism and Mr. Trump

Mon Jan 30 08:43:07 EST 2017

Hello List,

As most of you know,

The United States, at the time of the next IETF meeting in Chicago, will
still have the executive order that prevents anyone from seven designated
countries from entering. Referring to a post from the IETF general list,
and looking back over past IETF meetings, you can see at least 18 different
attendees (12 from Iran, 2 from Libya, 2 from Somalia, 1 from Yemen, And 1
from Sudan) who would be barred from attending the Chicago meeting *in
person*.

Following the Multistakeholder Principles and Rights we all have in mind I
think it is appropriate for the IETF to respond to the United States' ban
on people in Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, Yemen.

The question that came out from the list <ietf at ietf.org> is, When this
happens, is there any specific action that can be taken? It is not clear to
me, it is obviously impractical to cancel or move the meeting with so much
notice.

We all know how many Iranians are world-class technologists, including
computer science and engineering, and in order to respect the diversity of
participation in these events, what efforts are being made?

What do we think about this? How this affects the Multistakeholder Model we
are trying to preserve.
