ah, OK. i stand corrected. But here's why i was confused: we already
have 7 talk slots scheduled most days (Except day 1 and day 7), not 6
slots (though the final talk slot each day is not heavily used). So
rescheduling M is in line with the other proposals.
To recap the proposals:
(0 is the status quo)
0: 10:00-12:00, LUNCH, 14:00-16:00, Break, 16:30-19:30
M: 9:30-12:30, LUNCH, 14:00-18:00
X: 9:30-11:30, LUNCH, 13:00-15:00, Break, 15:30-18:30
Y: 9:00-12:00, LUNCH, 13:30-15:30, Break, 16:00-18:00
Z: 9:30-11:30, LUNCH, 12:30-14:30, Break, 15:00-18:00

taking into account this concern, i'd like to submit 3 other options by
analogy with X, Y, and Z that remove the break:
X': 9:30-11:30, LUNCH, 13:00-18:00
Y': 9:00-12:00, LUNCH, 13:30-17:30
Z': 9:30-11:30, LUNCH, 12:30-17:30
I can think of several other ways to formulate the changes, but this is
enough as it is, i think.
Could other dc10 orga folks voice preferences here?
