Re: reception not useful for WG chairs

[Benoit Claise <[e-mail]>]

Hi,

So we've been having Sunday receptions, for the entire community to 
connect before the week.
I guess that, simply because the density of WG chairs & ADs per m2 
during the newcomer meetings has been so high, that WG chairs & ADs 
benefited to get their first actions of the week done.
Up to point where, in comparison, the Sunday receptions have now deemed 
useless by some.
Up to point where the main goal of the newcomers meeting was not reached.
So what about restoring the initial goal for the Sunday reception, i.e. 
connect ... instead of (yeah, I see it coming), having yet another 
additional closed meeting.

Regards, Benoit
