It would be cool to have a keynote about desktop metaphores. Beryl etc are cool but they are more about new effects rather than new concepts. (Do we need new concepts? Is the current metaphore insufficient?) I don't know names though. Who is the creative brain behind OLPC's Sugar? Is Mirco a candidate for a keynote? Should we invite those guys experimenting with multipoint desktops? 2006/12/22, Alex Latchford <alex yawnster com>:
Hello guys, I got a request via Dean Sas on the British Ubuntu Mailing list for proposed speakers for GUADEC07.. Well I think that a talk and a demo of Gnome's (Metacity's) Compositing features, (more planned for 2.18 I believe?) Would be very interesting
