speaking for myself only,
if there are no better options, then I'm OK with Wed 10am. I'd like
to be in Sweeney AB starting from 11:20am, but can sacrifice it, if
need be (in case if 10am doesn't work for someone. or if 1hr won't
be enough (which is quite likely)). so let's hear from others.

"printk considered harmful" sounds good as well :) but "printk improvements"
can surely work.
