Re: [Tools-discuss] Meetecho rooms being opened to chairs 10 minutes before sessions would be _really_ helpful

[Toerless Eckert <[e-mail]>]

Adding tools-discuss as the authoritative group for MeetEcho feature requests, bcc wgchairs

I want to be offensive-ranter (ok, better on smaller groups like BIER):

I find these strict timelines that MeetEcho introduces extremely terrible.

We had in BIER a poor presenter cut off just because we had a great presentation
and discussion in a slot in before and therefore ran out of time.

How is it possible that in a physcial meeting we are able to utilize all possible
before andd after meeting times, and now going virtual where we should have
FEWER time constraints, we enforce MORE ?

No, i don't think 10 minutes before/after is sufficient. I think it should be
AT MINIMUM IMHO 30 minutes on both sides, before and after.

Pls. do not understand this big criticism as a big criticism of the tool.
It is not. It is just a criticism of this feature. The tool itself is on a great trajectory!

Cheers
