 i've been threatening to come along for a few months now but things
 haven't really worked out so far this year...

 as well as seeing the current state of the FOSS world in yorkshire,
 i'm keen to extend the FOSS OpenPGP WOT. (my code signing key is
 deeply embedded in the apache WOT. even if you don't have a public key
 for me to cross-sign, privately signing my key will allow you to
 verify apache releases and link into many FOSS WOTs.)

 if you're short of speakers then i'd to happy to step up sometime.
 most talks i'd be confortable giving would probably be of more
 interest to FOSS developers and contributors (rather than just users)
 and would be somewhat (possibly obliquely) apache (software foundation
 not httpd project) related. (i'm towards the OS end of the FOSS
 spectrum.) here's a list off the top of my head: apache incubator,
 pretty much any java-related project at apache (pick one: hadoop is so
 hot right now ;-), open source licensing (theory and practice),
 Mail2.0, open software auditing, open source verses open development,
 how apache works (organisational structure), open source release
 management, OpenGPG. if any of these topics might be of interest and
 you're short of a speaker then let me know.
