  I can think of a number of BOFs, and even some WGs that are very well
attended, but have not made any progress.
  
  My original contention was that these groups are either stuck, or they
have the *wrong amount* of face time. They get two hours, sometimes four
(over two days). 

  Yet, to make the decision they need to progress, they really need
three days of intensive time, and they probably need to have a smaller
(more manageable) group attending.

  Finally, as has been discussed previously (particularly during our
peak, when we didn't fit in the hotels anymore), with wireless, people
can occupy seats and not pay attention.
