RE: A modest proposal for Friday meeting schedule

2011-08-02 06:48:43
BTW, has anyone noticed the trend of doing more and more on the Sunday and
Saturday *before* IETF week?

Very much so. 
Workshops, joint meetings, design teams...
In Prague, a good number of people started in Friday.

Nothing wrong with that, but it does put paid to the idea that the IETF is 4.5
day meeting, and that squeezing it at one end will restrain it. Toothpaste-like,
squeezing the closing Friday will only cause more spillage on the opening
Sunday.

OTOH, I have good reason to think that the application of more focus by WGs
during their meetings *could* reduce the pressure on the whole schedule. Thus,
the perennial thread on not presenting drafts at WG meetings would surely bear
fruit.
