Description:
Using the new Drupal menu system is very easy to understand -- you can define a tab with a path like node/%node/oscms and whatever you expect (loading a node, handling not found and access denied and showing the node id if it's a tab) just happens.
If you want to develop for Drupal 6, you will use the new menu anyways so why not learn about it now? I will tell you all the problems I found in core and how they got solved eventually. If you have a tricky module, contact me beforehand and I will find a solution for you -- and tell others.
Given time and interest I will even tell a little about the innards and the history of it.

Karoly, I'd love to have you talk about how the old system worked and then how you solved many problems with the new system. Understanding the past will make the future better :-)
I will only mention problems with the old one but not reasons for it. I do not consider myself familiar with the old one, I barely understand the innards. Because most of us is like that with it, I found it easier to rewrite.
Look forward to it.

This sounds like a session I'll want to attend more than once. ;)
