Same as Steve, I feel this is a bit block-ish.

How about

talks
hack/bof
talks
day trip
talks
hack/bofs
hack/bofs

Then you still have two solid days of hacking, but a bit of
intermixing. Another advantage is that talks which spark spontaneous
BoFs become easier to organize (though I don't know how flexible the
overall schedule will be when it comes to last-minute BoFs).
