Hi Bart,

It looks like I'll be at FOSS4G 2008. And I plan to submit a MapFish
workshop proposal. I haven't thought about that workshop yet but it
will most probably be an "how to use MapFish" workshop, so not much
about of MapFish internals. MapFish being based on and making use of
OpenLayers, I cannot avoid talking about usage of OpenLayers. With
that in mind, and considering that lots of people now know how to use
OpenLayers, wouldn't it be interesting and useful to have a OpenLayers
internals workshop?

Thanks,
