Yeah, agreed. We should also in that case make *sure* that we are early for each shift, and leave late. A few minutes' overlap for handover is a good plan anyway. >7 hour sessions are fine for the on-call orga member, but not for the >front desk. Also agreed. >I've updated the wiki accordingly. Another point - we *really* need to have more than one person on a front-desk shift at once (2 at the moment, more at busy times): * toilet breaks * security / safety * bandwidth (not critical now, but come next Saturday/Sunday we'll be overwhelmed) And I'm assuming we also need to have on-call orga support for the overnight sessions at Bristo Hall. I've extended the wiki tables and added myself for several sessions. Please join in. -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK.
