This will give Tim the option I hadn't looked closely at the slot you're suggesting, but now I've actually checked out the schedule I notice that it would conflict with the second UserGlos session. As many of the participants for the NIR session are User Services people, this seems unwise. I don't see anything scheduled for Thursday night after the 6pm tech presentations. Any reason why we can't book a tentative slot then? It seems that all of the other potential slots have something of interest (at least to me... :-) > 1) To go ahead and ignore the second slot > > 2) To cancell the meeting and switch > > 3) To use both slots (eeek) Actually, judging from the fervor we found at the various related sessions last time, I bet we _could_ use them both, but since the objective is to allow everyone to participate I think finding a new slot is the best we can hope for. Going for Thursday night means we can go for a while, i is nothing after except the Bar BOF. :-) > By deciding a slot now, it means that the mechanics can be sorted > prior to the meeting. Megan, is this slot available? (If not, are > there many other options?) I agree that we should reserve something now, and tentatively suggest Thursday night after the 4-6pm technical sessions. Obviously people have to eat, so how about 7pm? Megan? Steve? Others? - peterd -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- "It never ceases to amaze me how otherwise decent people are willing to pass on these malicious stories that have absolutely no validity." - Ann Landers (writing about urban folklore) ----------------------------------------------------------------------
