Sure, presentations and demos are quite welcome. Our format has been a bit different for each XMPP Summit. However, the first 4 were quite small (~15 people). At the XMPP Summit 2 months ago we had 45 people! So I think we need to plan a bit more for such a large group. For the XMPP Summit at FOSDEM 2009 I think it would be good to have more hackfests among smaller groups (e.g., some client developers working together on Jingle, some other client and library developers working on end-to-end encryption, some server developers working to test TLS+SASL, etc.). But we would still have lots of time for presentations and discussion. >> Besides that, the FOSDEM team welcomes suggestions for speakers for the >> general tracks via a form on the site.

Sure. I gave a keynote at FOSDEM 2007 on XMPP security, so I don't know if they'd want me back, but I'm always happy to give a talk about our technologies.
