Sure. But gather.town could be made available for several hours before/after the event to encourage pre/post event gatherings of the community to experiment, discuss around the event. And of course, it would foster the opportunity of multiple groups to informally coalesce their events onto such a day. Maybe need to have a simple side meeting style wiki to reserve room/time slot (room 1 from 1PM - 3PM taken for the foobar meeting). I am not quit sure abou the "range" of audio. I ran into what seemed to be an MPTCP side meeting (at least thats what the payload turned into) at the bar one day last week, and that seemed to work nicely for > 20 people, so the audio must have passed far enough. But i ran into problems of audio not passing more than 2 people wide, even though i think it was not the boundary of a private space...
