If there's enough (which I assume to be the case), I'll volunteer. Yeah, that's indeed the problem. What we need is people that care about the content to craft what they believe to be an ideal track, and then hassle the right people into submitting those talks. I see that some people are starting to fill out http://wiki.apache.org/apachecon/ACNA2015ContentCommittee and that's awesome. What I'd like to see by early January is a track list (with or without speaker names), and then by the end of January, we need actual tracks, with proposal IDs from the CFP system. In an ideal world, everyone just comes to me with a completed track, and we schedule it. This means that I'm trusting each of you to have the pulse of your particular community, and to be getting input from everyone, so that there's not one person dictating the entire event. (I've heard one too many RichBowenCon jokes already, and I'm really not interested in being BDFL of this event, despite all appearances.) I truly want this to be a community event, in all senses - for the community, by the community.

Jan, I noticed the ps in your reaction to the posting of Sharan. Is there something specific you're hinting towards, that you can't find in the project's web pages? Can you elaborate on your ps.

RE: ApacheCon track descriptions
That's exactly the problem Hadrian. Far too many of our projects expect something valuable to just emerge. We need to get the PMCs to take ownership. We need speakers from outside the usual pool.
