Not bad thing perhaps. A focused group of people sharing some experience, meeting each other. Even as narrow as it is you can already explore a whole bunch of topics: security, caching, authentication, web-sockets, spdy, proxying, failover/ha, writing modules, video streaming. Can make it practical (here is how to configure this or that) or share battle stories. That's probably enough to fill a whole day with multiple tracks.

How about exploring how to integrate really really well with http://ajenti.org/ to do away with the need for trawling through obscure ini files to access:

nginx doesn't use ini files for configuration, and I seriously doubt that ajenti is going to help you write your own nginx modules.

This reads a little bit to me like a clumsy and misplaced advert for a control panel - but that could be my significant bias against all of this sort of control panel coming in to play.

I can assure you its not an advert, haven't even tried ajenti: I had just seen an article about the system and since I'm fed up with administrating server via console window AND wanting to try nginx.. well, it seemed reasonable to suggest fusion of two potential goodies!

may still be clumsy but.. well there we go.

Never heard of ajenti so why would nginx conference spend time integrating with it?

show me some nginx .ini files, because I haven't seen any yet
