The "official" votes one the list show:

1 Time::Space::Continuum
2 Perl 6: The Sky Isn't Falling
1 Small Miracles

(That include one person voting for two topics. Maybe we should conduct 
instant runoff voting? :-)

While any Damian talk can be entertaining, as one of the people who 
doesn't get to see him at the conferences, I'd rather not waste the 
opportunity on a talk that is more entertaining than practical.

The online description for "Small Miracles" doesn't say much (which 
makes me wonder why it is getting votes; have you heard it before?), but 
makes it seem unlikely that it falls into the practical category.

So I vote for "Perl 6: The Sky Isn't Falling" or "Perl 6 Update," with 
the latter being my first choices, as the former sounds like it covers 
much of the same ground as prior local talks by Damian and Dan Sugalski.

Combining the official, unofficial, and my votes, we have:

4 Small Miracles
3 Perl 6: The Sky Isn't Falling
1 Time::Space::Continuum
1 Perl 6 Update

(Assuming the "other" vote Uri refers to above for "Small Miracles" 
wasn't referring to the vote for that topic that was posted to the list. 
If it is, then there's a tie.)
