And let's not forget the discussions in the corridors, over coffee and 
lunch. They are extremely valuable networking opportunities and are even 
more 'off the record', as far as the government attendees are concerned, 
than questions they might ask from the floor of the formal sessions.

This is perhaps one reason why so many of the attendees are not in fact 
Government/Regulators, but I*/private sector folk with valuable insights 
into the various issues.
