Where do I find the discussion and subsequent rough consensus to switch the
starting time of the IETF f2f meeting days to 10 a.m.?

As far as I'm concerned that is a big mistake, wasting an hour every day
and making it (even more) difficult to relax in the evenings.


An hour here, and evening there, half-a-day next...

I'll suggest that this ought to be part of a basic discussion about the overall time budget for the entire week.

For example, there were some comments when Bits n' Bites was first proposed that the week was already over-full with IETF activities and that taking a way one more evening with a scheduled activity was actually counter-productive.

In spite of being a community that must do its engineering based on fundamental resource constraints -- this was, after all, an essential motivation for inventing packet-switching -- we schedule our week with little consideration of trade-offs and limitations.
