Hi, this is just a rough idea and I have to admit, that I have never been to any ApacheCon so far, yet.
How is the Apache incubator normally represented at those confs? I am a member of Apache Stanbol (incubating) and there are quite a number of other young projects at Apache around the topic of semantic web and natural language processing technologies. I am thinking of OpenNLP, Jena, Clerezza. Maybe this would be an interesting track, too.
