Let me try to explain. You are you. You are not Sugar Labs. But you will appear, in other people's eyes, to be Sugar Labs during your trip. For which, congratulations, by the way. So whether you want to or not, you will appear to represent Sugar Labs. Now Sugar Labs has an agreement with The Software Freedom Conservancy, which I've just read through, and Sebastian signed it, and the agreement requires that the project will be free software (2.b), and defines free software not in terms of price but in terms of rights to copy, modify, redistribute, and to improve (B). Sugar Labs does not and should not promote things that are non-free. So when you do speak, remember to make it clear to your listeners when you are speaking on your own behalf or on behalf of Sugar Labs. You will be two people. As far as I can see, there's no problem with you-as-you mentioning the non-free services you use, provided you are careful not to mention them too much when you-as-sugar-labs are speaking. I've faced the same problems myself, when speaking at conferences or meetings. I've faced the same problem while working for OLPC; how can you know that this isn't OLPC talking? Because I say it is me talking. As for why you, why now; it's because of your trip, and because Sebastian has made a written promise in that agreement. It has to do with long term responsibility and transparency. Hope that helps.
