IETF 108 is scheduled to be held 25-31 July 2020 in Madrid, Spain. =
However, based on current conditions in Spain and around the world, we =
are actively planning for a virtual version of the IETF 108 meeting.=20

We will announce on 15 May if we are confident that conditions have =
improved enough for an in-person meeting in Madrid to be held, or if we =
will be having a virtual meeting instead. While that date is still some =
time before the meeting, we believe it is important that we make this =
decision far enough in advance for all of us to make proper plans.=20

The IESG, the LLC, and the IRTF Chair are working together on =
documenting the decision-making criteria we will use to make this =
decision. We will share that with the community when it is ready.

We will not begin working group scheduling on 27 April nor will we open =
registration during the week of 4 May as originally planned. We will =
update the meeting web site and the important dates as our planning =
progresses. Alternative plans will be made for the Applied Networking =
Research Workshop (ANRW) scheduled for 27 July if IETF 108 is held as a =
virtual meeting.

We expect to start a survey soon that will help us understand the =
community=E2=80=99s preferences about many aspects of future virtual =
IETF meetings. Your participation in that survey will provide critical =
feedback we will need for planning purposes.

Sincerely,
Alissa Cooper, IETF Chair
Colin Perkins, IRTF Chair
Jay Daley, IETF Executive Director
