Delurking: that would be me. I didn't want to say anything until I had caught 
up on the list, and I still haven't, but then again it's not urgent because we 
don't know whether we will even get a slot. More later when we do.

FWIW, I'm the one who proposed 90 minutes instead of the typical 60. My view is 
that there should be no more than 30-45 minutes of presentations followed by 
lots of mic talk. I will probably enforce a "presentations must be ready the 
Monday before the meeting" requirement and will encourage people to start 
reading and commenting on them then.

The value of mic time is not "I like this and don't like that", but rather 
"that one idea on slide 3 makes me think of this other thing that hasn't been 
discussed yet". Proclamations of "this is great" and "this will never work" are 
more appropriate on the list; proposals of "if you add this" or "if you change 
that" are better uses of mic time.

The fact that we might meet f2f should have little effect on the current 
discussion.
