FWIW, I think the people who actually took the time to do the CFP
deserve some extra credit, whatever that means. Besides, given the
number of submissions, I think we can accommodate all the CFPs and
many of the others that have been proposed on the Wiki.

Yes, the CFP has ended and we (currently just me and Grant) have all
the submissions.
However, we do have quite a bit of freedom in planning the Lucene
track, so we can look beyond the CFP submissions in selecting the
talks. For example if there is no CFP submission on a certain topic
then we could still ask someone to come up with such a presentation.
There are also a number of presentation proposals that were made on
the wiki page after the normal CFP had already ended. We can also look
at those proposals when selecting the talks, though I would give
preference to the CFP submissions as they tend to be more complete
(summaries, speaker bio, etc.).
Nevertheless I will hopefully be at the conference (as speaker or
not) in
October and meet all of you again!
Excellent, looking forward to meeting you again!
BR,
