Happy New Year! I've joined the list, as I'm mainly interested in keynote speakers. I would really like to help find and get quality speakers. I have one suggestion that I think would be really good. Her name is Genevieve Bell, she is an Intel Fellow and is the Director of User Experience. She spoke at the equivalent of a Northwest version of SXSW. She works here in Hillsboro, and with your permission I would like to approach her as a possible candidate. Here is some background reading:

Let me know if you feel that this would be a good candidate. I would like to start early. If you reject, I will think of someone else. As luck would have it, she works in the same campus as I do and it should not be hard to send her a note and meet for coffee and talk about GNOME, its mission, GUADEC, and anything else you might want me to bring up. sri _______________________________________________ guadec-list mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/guadec-list
