Just some 'random thoughts' that first came to mind
when I looked at this page:
http://conference.osgeo.org/public/conferences/1/schedConfs/1/program.html
- Workshop Instructors may not be inclined to stop for a break,
   or may not want a break 'at the scheduled time'
- in terms of logistics, is it practical to setup on the Sunday
   for the Monday AM Workshops, then leave that setup "as is"
   until the Friday Workshops?
- "free time" on Wednesday afternoon - just a gut feeling that
   most people would rather have "something" going on than free
   time in the middle of the conference (it might be a good time
   to run Workshops, rather than on Friday afternoon)
Now, having looked at the wiki page, I see there isn't "free time"
on Wednesday afternoon?
