I will re-surface this.  I agree with Alistair on this for an informal
meeting w/ any social activities.  Anyone else?

I support a short formal(-ish) BOF which I think would give a seal of
approval to the activity and make sure that we all know each other -
that might get lost in a more social setting, especially as there is
usually so much overlap between different groups.

It should be followed of course by bar and/or dinner or both in either
order. So I am in favour of all three... :-)

Regards,

Alistair
