Since most of the participants are around for more than one day we should take this chance to be more productive and extend the meeting to two days. On the first day all existing issues should be presented in depth neccesarry to fully understand the constrains of them. This would also be a good time to have other informal meetings like cross constituency meetings and sales pitches. THe second day should than serve for discussions around the issues presented on the first day. It might be a wise idea to have a "free" day in between the two sessions to allow for offline discussions. I as well as others believe that this would raise the effectiness of our meetings quite a bit and would enable us to actually get work done.
