Michael,

Don't pull any speakers.
I don't really think anyone is advocating any changes from the current
system where we
occasionally have speakers on non-Linux, non-Unix Open Source related topics.
Indeed, this may become even more frequent in the future as Linux and
the BSDs and
other Unix OSs become more ubiquitous and are simply taken for granted.
