I would suggest sectioning out the forums to help better organize the information that is currently residing there and help with the information that is sure to come as users post thoughts, questions and information about sessions and meetings at the con.

Is it even feasible to re-organize ("move" stuff), from one forum to a new one that's created? Assuming it's not, I would still propose the following tree:

General - all existing content
Sessions Discussion - learn something interesting at your session? want to ask more?
- Marketing and Business
- Community and Core
- Design and User Experience
- Site Building
Logistics Discussion - need a ride? want to coordinate a barroom meetup? need a local give directions from the bar back to your hotel?

Who else has some thoughts? What else could/would/should we add in for discussion?

Sure. You just edit the post and change the forum in the drop down.

That's good news. In that light, I see a few recurring themes in the existing "general" forum:
- the schedule (what's up with what sessions when, whattup with BoF, etc)
- logistics and hotels
- extra curricular activities (club night at felt, going to the bruins game, laser tag, under 21 events, etc)

Logistics I've already got covered, so could move stuff in there. The others we could add in. Other thoughts?

I have added some sectioning to the forums. If someone can take on inserting the various sessions as forums under each track, that would be helpful.

We also could use some help moving the various posts in the General forum to their various new locations.

Sessions have comment threads. I see no benefit to duplicate that conversation elsewhere.
