There were quite a few people not on the list.  Google sent an
extra-large contingent last year.  People estimated about 50% of the
wireless meeting were Googlers, which comes to maybe 15 out of around
30-ish.  Google is doing a lot of (sometimes redundant :)) wireless
work lately.

It didn't come up.  Honestly, it feels to me like 6 months is the
right cadence.  A lot of work does happen in the background, such as
the fq_codel work (yay!) which was definitely launched by one or two
of these, but proceeded well afterwards.

Hope you're doing well at whatever you're doing now!

Have fun,

Avery
