I don't think I have seen a proposal like this before.  I really like it, as
there are a bunch of post-IETF stuff, some of which starts in the afternoon
and thus conflicts with the IETF. This fixes that problem, enables us to
have the same amount of meeting time, and potentially lets people get home a
day early.

it.  Thank you!

Friday, instead of having a 2.5 hour WG meeting, followed by a 1.5 hour
lunch break, followed by 2 hours of WG meetings... perhaps we could just
have 4.5 hours of WG meetings straight and also start a bit earlier?

attendees if they can avoid staying Friday night at the hotel.  And lunch at
13:30 doesn't seem unreasonable (to me).
