RE: A modest proposal for Friday meeting schedule

Interesting proposal. It could be as proposed with 3 sessions or with 2 
sessions and 1/2 hour break between Session I and II depending on the needs 
(both would still give 4h30 of meeting):
08:30-11:00 Session I
11:30-13:30 Session II

Thanks,

Subject: A modest proposal for Friday meeting schedule

Howdy,
First I'd like to thank the organizers for IETF-81 for 
another well-run meeting.  The logistics and coordination for 
such an event must be daunting, and I know we (the attendees) 
tend to focus on the negatives rather than the positives... 
but we really are thankful for all the time and effort put 
into it.  Thank you!

I would also like to propose a small change for future 
meetings.  On Friday, instead of having a 2.5 hour WG 
meeting, followed by a 1.5 hour lunch break, followed by 2 
hours of WG meetings... perhaps we could just have 4.5 hours 
of WG meetings straight and also start a bit earlier?  

Something like this:
8:30-11:00 Session I
11:15-12:15 Session II
12:30-13:30 Session III
End

That way the people who need to get to an airport get more 
time, or fewer of them have to miss WG meetings, etc.  And it 
would help reduce costs for attendees if they can avoid 
staying Friday night at the hotel.  And lunch at 13:30 
doesn't seem unreasonable (to me).

I apologize if this has been brought up before.  I tried to 
find it from an old email thread for the "Experiment" at 
IETF-73 which added the Friday afternoon sessions, but did 
not see this proposal being suggested.
