No, it's a 90 minute gap, from 12:30 till 14:00.

Talk 1: 9:30 to 10:30
Talk 2: 10:30 to 11:30
Talk 3: 11:30 to 12:30

Lunch: 12:30 to 14:00

Talk 4: 14:00 to 15:00
Talk 5: 15:00 to 16:00
Talk 6: 16:00 to 17:00
Talk 7: 17:00 to 18:00

I'm not sure this was done before.  I can appreciate the gap if there
were no constraints regarding schedule.  It'd be a nice moment for a
"coffee break".  However, given that we can't really end that late,
I'd rather end earlier without the gap than then have to rush in order
to get my food.
