Oh, I'd too. This is not about measuring anyone's credentials or
weighing that of one set against another. This is about what this
conference is actually about.

I think for a conference happening in India, which is aimed towards
mostly participants from India, this is not just a general question, but
a very pertinent one.

The Complexity of Security is pointing to Ansible talk by Trishna Guha.

Out of 16 speakers listed, ~10 speakers  are from outside of India. No two
ways about their credentials and contributions.
I'd put my money to listen to Carol Willing, Bret Cannon, and Andre Godwin.

If the website carries final set of speakers, then ~62.5% speakers are from
outside of India.
As I said, earlier, I'm not questioning about the talk quality or value it
may bring to the conference.
I'm worried about representation of developers from India.

In general, there is always a question about talks from Indian speakers.

At the same, don't change your mind to purchase the ticket!
