I like it in principal, but there are only 4 effective breakfasts
and 4 effective lunches. (Mon,Tue,Wed,Thu). Given "Side Meetings",
lunch speaking series, WG chair training, and that if your number comes
up for nomcom, you lose all of those... I think that there just isn't
time.
(ps: I've now had the IEEE 802 presentation three times)
