Wikimania 2006/Program discussion

This is a place for potential presenters and submitters to discuss possible or proposed submissions for Wikimania 2006; especially Birds-of-a-Feather (BoF) submissions, workshops/panels, community discussions and anything else that needs to be coordinated among several presenters. This is also a place to propose informal discussions or community events that have a restricted audience and don't need to go on the main program schedule.
