I didn't find them "confusing" in the sense of that they made it harder to pick where to go to, but they weren't really useful to me indeed. I just kept looking through all available sessions and picked my "favourite". > What did you folks think of the tracks?

It's certainly worth a try, but with free-form tags it's again a lot harder to only filter on some and be sure to to not miss anything else that interests you. So personally I'll probably still read the entire schedule. > * Track Leads - there seemed to be some confusion surrounding > the expectations and responsibilities of track leads.

I see their primary responsibility before UDS, to create a schedule which avoids overlapping attendance as much as possible. Quite frankly, the Natty UDS felt a lot more like a "creative chaos" and a lot less like the very rigid and pre-planned Lucid UDS to me; I liked Natty UDS a lot more personally. That said, the track leads probably still had their hands full with keeping the schedule up to date, adding new sessions during the week, etc., and they did a great job with that; thanks to all of them again! But I would actually like to keep the Natty UDS approach of not having the track leads trying to steer all the sessions in a track through a rather predetermined plan.
