The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) held its 100th meeting, IETF 100 in Singapore from 11 to 17 November 2017.

The IETF is an international community of network designers, operators, engineers, vendors, and researchers concerned with the evolution of the architecture, and smooth operation of the Internet. This was the third of three conferences it holds each year and a milestone, with this 100th session commemorated at the opening plenary session.
