Re: Meeting format (Re: Moving from "hosts" to "sponsors")

For what it's worth, this approach seemed to work reasonably well for the SIP P2P BOF + ad-hoc (or "interim") meeting. The former was on Tuesday, the latter on Friday afternoon.

This is an interesting suggestion.

Any meeting that is early in the week gets the benefit of follow-on hallways discussions, during the rest of the week. However BOFs are a specific class of meetings that tend to need this more than most.

BOFs are trying to gain interest and even a good BOF will tend to engender some fuzziness, with resulting efforts at clarification. This often benefits most from the combinations of smaller discussions that are so common during IETF meetings.
