The IETF apparently has some major scheduling problems as it is, because there
are very few venues that can handle the number of people that show up *and*
have the right mix of large rooms and many smaller break-out rooms.  Trying to get
it into a hotel opposite a NANOG would just exacerbate the problem.

And there's nothing stopping NANOG types from joining an IETF working group and
participating via e-mail - there's a large number of people who have contributed
to the IETF process and never actually been sighted at an IETF meeting.
