to consider:
there'd have to be someone monitoring them and providing answers.
if forums, suggest already topics (ex: housing, travel) and encourage them to contact DA for other things, to have focused discussions

Past cons have had forums. They're nice for con-goer to con-goer discussions for things that don't need any sort of official answer.

The alternative would be g.d.o. I think one or the other should happen. A g.d.o group might be nice since it comes with a bunch of features people know how to use built in. Either one should have someone monitoring them.

Title: Have forums on the site? » Enable forum module and add menu link

I'll enable this on the test or scratch site and see how it looks. May require some styling.

Could expand this out horizontally on the page:
Only local images are allowed.

Also, there's no "add new forum topic" link.

What forum categories should we have? London2011 had Conference "Schedules, sessions, sponsors", London "Hotels, travel, tube", and Community "Attendees, news, forum".

This shouldn't need much theme work. The table will expand with the content.

I enabled this as is (with fix for action links in theme) and copied Chicago's forums. http://denver2012.drupal.org/forum

Should also allow people to post in it, even though that's technically out of scope according to the title. ;)
