Just as an FYI, I believe Bruce and/or Jeff are doing a tutorial on
Geronimo over the weekend, and I'm doing a talk on "J2EE Development
with Apache Geronimo" on Wedensday morning.  So it would be nice to
focus the BOF on things other than basic installation and J2EE
development.

I could do a lightning talk on our experience with Portlets, or the
Management API, or something like that.

We could also spend some time brainstorming on features for the next
release, perhaps.

+1 for that... Personally, I think we should spend the entire time discussing what's next -- target release dates, new functional capabilities, long-term goals, etc.
