I think it might also be worth encouraging working group chairs to have
working group breakfast or lunch meetings (RSVP required) where newcomers
are invited to come meet the chairs and chairs can strategically invite a
few return attendees (but fewer than newcomers so they don't get crowded
out) to establish a connection with the newcomers. If this became common
it would probably require tool work, but what do folks think of the idea in
principle?
Hmm. Last I checked there were 10 combined breakfasts and lunches during the
week. How many working groups are there?
