Since this won't be resolved prior to the IGF and we're not doing anything
there under the caucus' name, time would not appear to be of the essence.
As such, it's probably better to take the time to get it right, and B2 would
seem the best way to ensure balance (I'm not clear on whether it would
increase choice per se...).

BTW, speaking of Athens, presumably we should have a caucus meeting, but I
don't recall seeing any discussion here of when/how etc.  Since everyone's
schedules are probably filling up, it might be good to decide this sooner
than later.  A priori, one would think that lunchtime on the 31st is the
best window of opportunity, since there are lunch workshops on the following
days.  Make sense?  Do we need to ask Markus for a room, or can we assume
there'd be a suitable space we could simply occupy in the plaza?

Best,

Bill
