No one is under the obligation to attend all of the panel talks. That is part of why there are other activities going on at the same time as the panel talks.
As others in the thread have said, if you felt that some topic wasn't discussed that should have been, then why not lead a discussion on that topic next year? NLUG used to play a larger role in Phreaknic than is now the case, although it was never the central focus. The Nashville 2600 group now handles almost all of Phreaknic, although there are a fair number of people who are in both organizations. -- John F.
