Re: Last Call: Proposed 2008 - 2010 IETF Meeting Calendar

Ray,

Thanks for doing this it helps a lot.

I think the selection criteria needs one more variable:
        Time between meetings.

With 3 meetings a year 122 days is about right, but some times during the
year are less productive than others so we should try to space the
meetings out longer in those time periods.

In my experience the productivity between winter and spring meetings is the
lowest, due to multiple global holidays and corporate end of year
issues, as well as people in many countries, having to file their
taxes in this period.
I would like to see longer interval between these two meetings.

In the current schedule between
        Jul/2008  to Dec/2008  is 133
        Dec/2008  to Mar/2009  is 105
        Mar/2009  to Aug/2009  is 133
These meetings need to be better spaced.

IMHO, good spacing of meetings should be as an important criteria as
conflicts with other organizations.

        Olafur
