"best-effort" seems just a little bit too discouraging to me--
Looking at a thesaurus, I see "promoted" and "featured" (and maybe
"supported", but a bit like "sponsored" before).
There is also the very simple "Track One" and "Track Two" which also
indicates they are basically the same. Similar is "primary" and
"secondary". A "Social Track", for non-academic events, might help to
clear things up, too.
I think right now I like "featured" and "secondary"(<-not quite
perfect) or "track one" and "track two" best.

who realizes this conversation isn't actually getting us closer to
making a successful debconf
