Re: Meeting "lounges" at IETF meetings

I agree with having the terminal room... let's get some signs on the stairs to 
the fourth floor when we return.
When we return fall 2013, can we move all the break food into the space at the 
top of the escalator, away from the doors in/out of Regency.
Let's also get a few more couches around the place... the Quebec 2011 big room 
was awesome, in hindsight.

Greetings again. Some meeting venues have had insufficient places where five or 
so people could comfortably gather for informal meetings, while other venues 
did this just fine. One proposal has been that the Secretariat reserve large 
rooms for this. Unfortunately, that adds significant cost to the meetings.

Instead, I propose that we simply designate the terminal room (which is already 
reserved for future meetings) be designated as meeting areas where talking is 
allowed / encouraged. Earplugs could be provided for people who really want a 
quiet Ethernet connection; the cost of those for the Secretariat will be about 
$25/meeting.
