[governance] space on Nov.11th

[William Drake]

Hi Carlos,

Last I heard, a) we were trying to minimize scheduling conflict with GigaNet
by you doing the local thing in the afternoon (after 3pm I'd thought), and
in consequence, b) we were going to have a caucus meeting after GigaNet was
over, in the same room.  Parminder may have already asked Markus for the
latter space, not sure.  So why would we now be changing the plan in a
manner that cannot work for a bunch of us?

Confused,

Bill
