Bruce, I love the idea, but think it is going to be a challenge to fit into our schedule.<br>
<br>
Also of note,<br>
I've talked with Warwick Watkins about what he will speak about. He said he is happy to speak for as long or short as we like. 15 to 20 mins is fine by him. Or he can talk for an hour.<br>

Something that I think we have missed in our planning that would be appropriate for FOSS4G-2009 is a brief "Welcome to Country" ceremony conducted by an appropriate Aboriginal elder similar to that done at WALIS last year.<br>
<br>
Timing of course will be an issue...<br>
