A place for people to gather and talk to each other about the topic of the session, in this case Apache Forrest. I think that it comes from the saying: "Birds of a feather flock together". Birds that have the same type of feathers, i.e. the same interests, would gather and hang out with each other. Almost all tech conferences have these sessions. Usually there is no schedule, just a place to chat with each other. Anyway, see: http://www.apachecon.com/2005/EU/html/sessions.html > ...and who would you ask > about having one and inviting non-registrants. Keep these two issues separate. You want the session anyway. If you can get non-registrants there, then that is a bonus. I don't know who to ask about either question. Start at http://www.apachecon.com/html/contact.html --David
