I just recored all the comments as they were given. We really did not want to get into a DDD debate, I agree with you and the way that it is currently modeled is good from my perspective. @Aaron I agree with you about how our Conference to Attendee is currently modeled.

Exposing a collection as a collection breaks the encapsulation of the aggregate root. Conference.AddAttendees is much more flexible and safe than Conference.Attendees.Add. It's not a lot more code and it easily allows you to add behavior around adding and removing attendees. For example, how would you handle a conference max attendee limit if you just exposed the collection? re: the Conference domain object, I wasn’t in the session and I haven’t looked at the code, but I’d strongly consider not following the suggestion to just exposing the collection.
