For an official BOF (i.e., one listed on the IETF agenda and assigned
a room by the Secretariat), you need pre-approval from an IESG member,
e.g., one of our Area Directors.  Also, I suspect that it might be too
late to get a BOF scheduled -- the agenda for Montreal is already packed
full.  Still, it's worth a try.

Monday is out -- there's an ipngwg meeting that evening.  I assume that
Tuesday evening is the IETF social, since there are no meetings scheduled
for that night, but I haven't yet seen any info on the social.  Personally,
I usually skip the social, so Tuesday would be OK with me.  Also, Thursday
after the Open IESG meeting would be fine with me, especially if we held
the BOF over dinner somewhere.

For the agenda, we need to discuss the status of router implementations,
e.g., do we have a routing protocol implemented yet for the 6bone, or will
we have to use static routes initially.  Also, under "participant plans"
I'd be happy to report on our project to get IPv6 into Dartnet, which
has just begun.
