I wish to add a specific point to this. I also raised a proposal for over-weekend meetings a few years back. I feel that the attendees to US IETF, which have often predominated, but in the general sense the attendees to IETF who fly for more than 12h to get there, suffer a material disadvantage from the monday-friday timing.
We loose two weekends, every IETF. the proposal to shift to mid-week start-end has the material advantage to these people that they now loose only one weekend, as does everyone else. Therefore, from a Benthamite 'maximal good to maximal people' sense, this is a better model. I recognize that very strongly held views, including faith-related issues, lie here. I do not wish to disrespect these beliefs. -George _______________________________________________ Ietf mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
