Currently hanging on a conferance call waiting for the suppliers who set it up to actually join. They are currently 6 minutes late.
How long would you wait?

You were 1 minute longer than I'd be...
HTH.

There must be a mathematical formulae for working out the waiting time taking into consideration, length of conference/meeting, importance of meeting, number of people in meeting, value of disruption, waiting time etc.

I think it's more of a trade off between
1. how important the meeting is to you
2. how important the meeting is to the organisers (if you didn't organise it)
3. how important your presence at the meeting is
if 1 is on top then wait
if 2 and 3 are more important than hang up and wait for someone to email/call your mobile with an apology for being late!
