Re: IETF 54 calendar

Cedric,
as Julie said, we are not scheduling things into Friday before the other 
slots are full.

BUT - Yokohama will probably see one meeting that is, by definition, a 
conflict with just about EVERY working group: The meeting that will talk 
about the IETF procedures for intellectual property rights, including 
copyright issues and - most ominously - patent issues.
This was mentioned at the IETF plenary in Minneapolis - a team has been 
working to bring this forward to fruition, but does not have all the work 
that we want to do before asking you to start hammering it out done yet.

This will likely have the properties that:

- Lots of people will be interested
- No matter what we schedule it against, there will be a conflict
- It is likely to be quite a long and heated debate

At the moment, the least damaging solution seems to be to schedule this 
group in the largest room we can find - and in the Friday timeslot.

So this means that people who have IPR issues they want to bring to the 
table had better be prepared to stay Friday; most others can leave if they 
want to.

What do people think?
