If people are there paying attention, I want them there. Lots of people don't know whether they're going to commit to doing work until the end of the BoF, after they've heard all the stuff about problem statement, work scope, and proposed work items. I'd rather just make sure we have rooms that are big enough, and leave it at that. BoFs tend to be artificially busy because people like those tchotchkes -- people are interested in seeing what the new proposals are about. Let's not discourage that, but feed it.
