I had the same experiences at most of the conferences, forums, summits and discussions, that we are debating the same things again and again, trying to invent something new instead of using the tools we already have. And always the same vocabulary! I heard a sentence about this from Esther Dyson at Internet Hungary this week: "It's not about continuing an old battle but starting a new one." But don't you think this problem exists because there are always loads of participants who go to these places (even to barcamps) to learn about new things there? That we have to review everything to help them to understand? I also noticed, these events are never(!) environmentally friendly or economic. Even if each participant thinks that "we have to do something about climate change", I can't even imagine how many thousands of euros are spent on nice hotel rooms, high quality food, printed documents and prestigious conference halls while that money could be spent on supporting more participants who can't afford the travel, or given to NGOs...
