Re: Call for Papers and Call for Sponsors

[Brian Cameron <brian cameron oracle com>]

Haggen:

These documents look really good.  One comment for consideration...

Considering that we are likely to have a number of good hackers
attend the event like Jon McCann, Allan Day and Jakub Steiner,
I think it might be worthwhile to update the Call For Papers
to indicate that talks about the areas where they work:

- Jon McCann    - GNOME 3 & GNOME 3 Usability
- Allan Day     - GNOME Marketing
- Jakub Steiner - GNOME Human Interface Engineering (Icons
                  and Graphic Design).

Currently, section 4 "Hacking GNOME" does not seem to emphasize
any of these areas.
