OK, we're all good on the concept. Apologies for being disorganised, and I
think I've left it a bit late for a Friday meeting (not to mention the fact
that I would struggle to squeeze it in, myself).
I suggest we meet at the Cisco stand 5 minutes after the morning sessions
end on Monday and discuss it over lunch. Looks like there's a reasonable
lunch break, more still if we run into the period when the lightning talks
are on.
