Hi Till,<br>
<br>
here's the details to a potential keynote that fits the disaster topic.<br>
It's from a project from eHealth Africa [1] to fight Ebola. The talk was<br>
already presented at the JSConf EU [2] (a really high profile<br>
conference), that talk is really worth a watch. It was presented by<br>
Patricia Garcia, she was technical lead. She now longer works for<br>
eHealth Africa, but I don't think that's a problem.<br>
<br>
Its main topics are are how to reduce the response times. How open<br>
source was used. How great open source communities are. It also gets a<br>
bit technical about which lessons were learned from using Apache<br>
CouchDB, which mistakes were made and what you should keep in mind when<br>
you do sync.<br>
<br>
For me I'd expect non technical people to be impressed how fast such a<br>
system can be built and how great open source is, for technical people<br>
it gets into enough detail to be interesting.<br>
