Hi Ben!

First of all, I love the idea! Second, approval - we're OPENsuse, so if you 
want to do this, nobody can stop you ;-)

I do not exactly understand the timing thing. This is meant to happen just 
BEFORE a new release? Does it not make sense to do it  just AFTER a release so 
we can showcase the new features?

In any case, you mention it's needed to have a (large) number of sessions on a 
variety of things. It might make sense to start a piratepad with ideas for 
sessions, then try to find people to pick and do a session etc.

Cheers,
Jos
