RE: [XCON] Moving users between conferences

The waiting room would obviously be a sidebar of the main conference. This has benefits from the point of view of resource management, permissions, isolation, etc.

Which is the sidebar and which is the main conference? Is the waiting room the main conference and the rest are sidebars? I don't think so. 
This to me looks like separate conferences where the user is referred/transferred to another conference by an administrator (or key participant or whatever the terminology is today :) )
