After being thoroughly blown away by the Freebase Parallax screencast (http://mqlx.com/~david/parallax/ ), I think David Huynh would make an excellent keynote speaker. His other projects include SIMILE's Exhibit, Sesame for RDF, and SIMILE's faceting-for-Thunderbird plugin Seek.

There is no official planning committee (maybe there should be?) -- conference planning takes place on the code4libcon group. This list was shared with that group and now it's being shared with the full code4lib list. As the host organization for 2009 we're just trying to coordinate this discussion. -- Jean On Wed, Sep 10, 2008 at 10:46 AM, Kevin S.
