Each conference has at least one host. The duties of the host vary from
maintenance-only hosting which might involved clearing out old and unused
topics to high-involvement hosting where the host takes an active role
in encouraging and participating in the discussions.
Hosts can help topics stay on the subject, answer questions, and bring
up new subjects. They help new users and lost users.
They generally keep things rolling along in the conference.
