Great! You should feel more than free to talk about harmony at a conference (and the same holds for anyone :-)), and I do suggest you get some community review since lots of people no doubt have some suggestions. Unfortunately, you cannot state you're "representing" "Apache Harmony" or "Apache", since well, you're not. The situation would be different if you would be part of some "official" part of Apache, like if you were an officer or a PMC member. You really wouldn't want to state something like that, evil companies might sue you instead of the ASF :-) But I just wouldn't worry about that too much. As you're probably going to spend some time explaining it all, you can explain you're a part of the apache harmony community and that you're going to (my assumption here) help drive the project forward as a developer. hope that clarifies it a bit, cheers, Leo
