I had problem to find several "break"
meetings due to lack of any off-line
information regarding it. I mean a kind of "oldschool" blackboard or
flipchart standing on Logo Square with information where and when there are
meetings could easily solve this problem. I missed 2 meetings (EU policy
and teahouse) and joined one just because I spotted Asaf talking to group
of the people) just because there was no clear information where it is.

Hi all,
reading back through my mailbox, I encountered huge amounts of
announcements (mostly by Wikimedia Deutschland) about events taking place
in breaks of Wikimania. Without wanting to form an opinion about that just
yet, I would like to ask what you think about having many side events going
on in the break/breakfast/evening.
I personally am a bit caught between wanting to do as much as possible in
the limited time, and feeling that there was basically no break at all
(contributing to the exhaustion), because every break people were basically
asking you to attend break sessions. For some of them that is the only
choice (they intend to be informal), others probably belong primarily in
the schedule (assuming they were interesting).
Anyway, just a conversation starter to evaluate the concept of break
events a bit more in general (I assume the chapters village etc in
particular will be evaluated separately too).
Looking forward to your thoughts,
Best,
Lodewijk
