I'm not sure we can actually "do" this part. I think having the topics
will probably determine the best speakers. Hopefully, these speakers
will submit proposals.

Of course, PMC members will likely be the best speakers for a few of the
items.

In any case, I would like to send out a message  to our "announcements"
and "dev" lists about the topics and the conference before Jan. 1 if
there are no objections.
