Let's not procrastinate guys, we're on the home stretch.<br>
<br>
<br>
I agree with Tyler, I'd go with:<br>
<br>
- the AGM on the Wednesday.<br>
<br>
- only one BOF on the Thursday.<br>
<br>
<br>
We'll be packing up on Friday and will likely not have access to the<br>
venue. If anything we'll be kicked out ;-)<br>
<br>
If people feel strongly, they'll self organise and have any number of<br>
unofficial BOFs anyway.<br>
