A revised word problem

A revised word problem for the math types

After getting some more information, I have a revision to the problem posted a few days ago that should make it easier.

There are 8 moderators, one at each table, that stay with a given table and do not move.

So, the problem is reduced to 56 people (P0, P1, ... P55) meeting at 8 tables of 7 seats each, for 8 sessions, with all 56 people needing to meet each other (and all the moderators), but the moderators not needing to meet each other.

Oh! The non-moderators need to meet 63 people each?

That is still impossible.

When we were talking, I thought that each person now only needed to meet 56 unique people.

Each person can still only meet 7 unique people per session, and with 8 rounds that's a maximum of 56 people that an attendee can meet.
