LinuxConf has a number of problems:
1. The GUI sucks. And the more I look at a Mac, the more I
realize, that a generic super-cross-platform toolkit is
wrong for doing highly-polished, highly-nice,
highly-intuitive user interfaces are.
2. LinuxConf source code is not nice.
3. LinuxConf source code is C. We want scripts.
