I don't necessarily think that this sort of stuff should be done at GUADEC - we have no delivery vehicle for these types of talks. GUADEC has traditionally been attended by the people doing the work, and it's been relatively hard getting new people involved. I wish we'd do more of these types of talks at bigger conferences with already guaranteed audiences, and having them during the main IGC week seems ideal for that.
