Please come to the next Freed planning meeting (to be announced soon), and discuss this further. My personal comments are that while this sounds good, we are essentially adding a fourth track which might be difficult to fit in because of considerations of space, time, and maybe finances. > > Um, this is a little contradictory.

I would think that one sub-conference would be fine. Wouldn't multiple ones be too disparate, and distract from the theme of the event? Also, our thinking was to broaden the scope of the event. Doesn't this cater to too narrow an audience?
