Re: ApacheCon Austin keynotes (and other stuff)
Well, now that you say so, there is that guy called Rich Bowen. You know, most developers ain't that rich and this guy ostensibly says he's Rich... This may hurt financial feelings. Another option is to call the guy Poor Bowen, so everyone feels ok? Just a suggestion.

RE: ApacheCon Austin keynotes (and other stuff)
How about Jono Bacon. He's got the open source creds but his new gig at XPrize is a fascinating demonstration that what we do here in open source is akin to the processes needed to create huge innovation leaps. If we were to pair that with some bigwig at a research org then we can do the full story from invention through innovation to production (I'm assuming production is a given with the ASF). I can fish around for a research bigwig if you want, but we have plenty of people around here more directly connected to that world too. Ross Microsoft Open Technologies, Inc.

Re: ApacheCon Austin keynotes (and other stuff)
At POSSCON a few years ago, Jessica McKellar of PSF keynoted as was quite good. Since the PSF took some ASF bits and pieces to create itself, maybe she would be a great person to contact and see if she'd like to keynote.
