I'm not seeing a problem with it.
If folks in here feel that it's exclusionary, then you could make a AT5 cocktail party thread to discuss details. Or perhaps, there could be a dedicated AT5 thread, like we did with MTM and SE, separate threads that co-existed with this one
I think the only issue i've had with anything appearing 'exclusionary' is people planning 'invite only' events, that they are discussing in public. So for an event that's part of the con and - theoretically - open to all, I have no issue with discussion and planning. The same if there's something like 'let's meet up in the lobby at this time for dinner' or the like
But if it's a 'the six of us are going to go out to dinner, and only the six of us are allowed to attend'...that's the stuff I think is best discussed in private.
So, in public, events that anyone can attend, or has the ability to attend, but private events with a limited number of attendees or welcome participants, that's best discussed via E-mail or on your live journal or the like.
ETA: clarification
