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.

Interesting observation.
