Martin, thanks for raising this so quickly.
Given that 18:00 isn't good for you and that it may be hard to fit all
these things in one session (as I also have some finance things that are
not specific to Bitcoin), I would suggest having a different BoF
specifically for something like "Alternative uses of the BitCoin
blockchain" or "Alternative uses of BitCoin concepts". Do you want to
propose a time for that or should I? I would like to be able to attend
that too, but please be aware I leave Tuesday afternoon.
Regards,
Daniel
