It's the elephant in the room; while we don't acknowledge it much anymore, experienced chairs know that it means to have a meeting at the end of IETF week.

I will be pretty much brain dead by the friday of IETF. The few weeks before IETF I find very busy with IETF work. I don't expect to be very useful on the Saturday. I prefer not to spend two weekends in a row away from home (and I have to be at the IETF for meeting the previous weekend). If we have the meeting, I will probably come but my preference would be some other time.
