The session mentioned was posted by Eric Wolf who took over organizing it this year in my stead. http://n2.nabble.com/CGP-AAG-2010-Open-Source-Tools-and-Standards-in-GISc-Research-and-Education-td3830239.html#a3830239
I would encourage the creation of a 2nd session or panel aimed at less technical users - those went over pretty well last year. This does bring up the other questions about the AAG: Booth?, Workshops? I don't plan to present this year but wouldn't be against helping with the booth and a workshop if there's interest and budget to make it happen. We should probably put this and the AGU in December on the Marketing agenda for next week.
