It doesn't matter--the panel will inevitably turn into a bunch of people talking about how long they've been writing it, how their fan fic is mroe fan ficcy than anyone else's, and who has betrayed the community of fan fic writers and reader.
Amen. I have come finally to the conclusion that if you're going to attend or participate in a panel on YA fiction nowadays, you must first be compelled to sign a waiver which promises that you will not mention your own childhood trauma, the adjective "dark" in any context outside of the photographic, or The Giving Tree.
