I read SHOULD and RECOMMENDED as different. SHOULD is how a implementation ought to behave unless there are special circumstances (deployment, additional functionality, better idea). MUST says that there are no circumstances special enough to change the behavior. RECOMMENDED is closer to a Best

Just a quick aside, but having run an interim WG meeting where we did not charge a meeting fee and knowing how significantly attendance diverged, I would strongly support at least some meeting fee for remote attendance. There's also the key fact that the IETF is funded by IETF meeting fees and ISO

For what it is worth, those who I've seen commenting in the +1 fashion recently are primarily people I've known to be active in the IETF for years - including some WG chairs. I don't think this is an effort to round up external voters - but rather encouragement to others inside IETF to publicly sp
