Second, the second occurrence is an unnecessary word-for-word repetition and so that whole sentence can be removed, leaving the paragraph starting with "To meet in cities …" > > > 11) <!-- [rfced] FYI: RFC 8718 states "one-third or more of projected > meeting attendees" rather than "one-third of the projected > attendees", so we have updated the text accordingly. > > Original: > To address this, this document updates Section 3.2.4 of [RFC8718] to > replace the requirement for the total room block in the IETF Hotels > from "one-third of the projected attendees" to a more flexible > "sufficient rooms to meet the expected demand". > > Current: > To address this issue, this document updates Section 3.2.4 of [RFC8718] > by replacing the total room block requirement for the IETF Hotels from > "one-third or more of projected attendees" to a more flexible > "sufficient rooms to meet the expected demand". > --> Agreed. > 12) <!--[rfced] Can "hiring" be replaced with "renting" or "providing" for > clarity as shown below? > > Original: > The IASA has responded to this feedback by adopting > a new practice of hiring in hallway seating whenever > that provided by the venue is insufficient. > > Perhaps: > The IASA has responded to this feedback by adopting > a new practice of renting in-hallway seating whenever > that provided by the venue is insufficient. > --> The intent here is to explain that we bring in the in-hallway seating from third parties outside of the venue so yes the change works, but if I could think of a better word that does not suggest we rent it from the venue, then that would be better, But I can’t. > 13) <!-- [rfced] FYI: We updated the following text to make the sections > and RFC being referenced clearer: > > Original: > To address this, is updated as follows: [RFC8718] > > 1.
