I have sent you this email because you where either involved with last years event or you have shown some interest in being involved with this years event.

We are at a very embryonic stage at the moment, and really this email is kind of a heads up. I'm hoping that some of you guys would be prepaired to do some talks, or have some ideas of things we can do
