Hi Mike, this suggestion is only marginally self-serving (as I do have my own Summit coming up, along with project partner Jeff Mills)... but what about having a section / thread for all known and relevant seminars/conferences/expos/tradeshows ?
Of course, you'd have to gain some sort of benefit from the exposure you provide with your directory listing to these conference hosts.
I personally have no interest in wasting time flying around the globe for events unless necessary... but if I know of conferences and tradeshows closer to home, I'd attend a slew of them.
And this would tie in nicely with the mission of this community which is to encourage networking and joint ventures.
But I'd also recommend the list be more diverse than just the typical seminar... bootcamps held by established marketers, multi-day IM conferences, networking adventures (ie: Mavericks style events), diverse topics including domaining seminars, blog expo, etc.
