normally it actually streams all night. In maastricht the due to thefts
from the facility during setup we removed the recorders every night
after the last session.

Yes there certainly is contention, but I know at least one WG that did
not use one of their two slots. 

I also experienced a number of WGs (all remote) where there were
multiple presentations which were:
         a) not related to any draft I could find.
         b) not uploaded beforehand.
         c) not clearly related to any action of the WG.

(no Paul, none of them in IPSECME)

I contend that we use our in-person meeting time very poorly, and that
we need less meeting time, not more.

Providing an outlet for presentations like this would, I think, make it
easier for WG chairs to stick to the action items at hand.
