I liked your [Zot's] ideas for two round-tables/debates (on different
nights, of course):
Software licenses: practicality, philosophy, and morality
Distribution of choice:  Why I do things the way I do.

I'll volunteer to take the FSF/GNU hardline on the former and the LFS
(Linux From Scratch) position on the latter (I'd also do Debian in a
pinch, but I'm not heavy into Debian development or anything, but I have a
fair idea of what's real and what's bullshit and maintain several Debian
systems).

I think both of those could make for a fun night.
