The work of the IETF is critical to the open evolution of the Internet. Three times a year, engineers come from around the world to meet and work on drafts that could eventually become RFCs. Most of the engineers that attend an IETF are from more developed countries and regions. However, the participation on the IETF mailing lists span beyond that to engineers from emerging and developing economies. Because of the costs involved in traveling to an IETF meeting, many of these engineers don’t have the resources to attend in person.
