A new column would not be needed. Just turn the session title itself into a link. I would probably assume that sessions are not going to run over (if we see that they are, we typically adjust the calendar, but this is not common during big events). Lernid currently displays a schedule of sessions. This schedule shows the time that each session starts at. So a link to something like http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2011/07/11/%23ubuntu-classroom.html would be trivial (that only requires knowing the date of session). I've thought about ways to link to the specific start of the session on the log page, but it is rather tricky. There are so many different schedules and clocks involved that is is very likely that one of them might become a minute or so off. This means that a link directly to a specific time like http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2011/07/11/%23ubuntu-classroom.html#t05:35 could easily break. Linking to just the right irclogs.ubuntu.com page should be sufficient, and it will still make the lives of users easier.
