There's likely going to be a flood of news, many interesting talks, interesting resources and comments from people...
Some ideas
  • Custom sub: Have a custom sub just for the conference topics? (or maybe some form of tagging)
  • Dedicated post: Have a post dedicated (and visually distinct) to all conversations about the conference? Maybe allow different rules around posting multiple comments?
  • Banner: Have a banner on top that links to the schedule and to the talks, etc
Any other ideas? Are folks coming to the conference? I'll be there, and I'm likely to mention SN to people here and there... ;)
Oh, I wish i could come. 😔🤟🏻

Great idea. Definitely worth thinking about this!
How about a post for each talk and discussion in comments?

What's everybody doing posts.
Everyone knows that figuring out which sessions and parties to go to is the main need.

I can create a pinned post for each day of the conference that includes the agenda that day, relevant links, etc and people can discuss it in there.
IME It'd also be nice to have some indication of what's going on on each stage at any given moment, but that'd require a fairly dedicated effort/feature.
Advantages of a sub afaict:
  1. discovery ... if we list every talk at any given moment as a "post" they can get upvoted
  2. live play by play of talks (which would require hiring people to do probs)
  3. maybe people want to discuss a particular talk, but I'm usually just moving from one to another as I go
if we can decide on what we all want I should be able to get something done for the conference

As discussed with @the_bitcoin_bum this morning, part of the benefit of the conference is we kind of get SN in person.
I think the best bang for our buck is a pinned post (likely at the top) with relevant links like satellite events, agenda, etc. and the opportunity for discussion among people who are attending.
