Hi,

I just wanted to point out that we're seeing a different push in the IESG from WG chairs, many of which want more WG session time during IETF meetings. That isn't to say that they wouldn't also want more informal time, but there is a tussle here. 

Additional tracks and/or longer days and/or full-length Fridays will likely be needed and the community should weigh those against their downsides for in-person and remote attendees.
