For what it's worth, I think this makes a lot of sense.  If
slightly earlier closing and slightly shorter meetings would
make it possible for more people to feel comfortable about
putting their hand up for exec positions, then I think that's a
worthwhile benefit that comes at a trivial cost.

This leads me to a question: what is the computer museum, and
what sort of things can we do for it?
