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