Guadec 2007
-----------

Keynote speakers this year include well known Free/Open Source
advocates from both within and outside the GNOME project. Stormy
Peters, Paula le Dieu, Ari Jaaksi, Doc Searls will all be giving
keynote talks, as well as community members such as Robert Love, Alex
Gravely, Havoc Pennington and Bryan Clark, and Jono Bacon.

The schedule consists of nearly 80 sessions split into three tracks
looking at future projects, showcasing current developments and
workshops to tackle difficult issues. There are also a number of
tutorial sessions, and lots more lightning talks.

We will also be giving away free t-shirts, bags, GNOME badges and USB
drives. The USB drives will contain lots more fun stuff from the
sponsors, plus useful local information and the conference brochure
and schedule. The drives will be gigabytes in capacity allowing them
to be useful portable storage devices after the conference as well.
