X dev conf - TG informal session

[Stuart Kreitman]

Sounds important and good, but my main concern today is to plow the

As of this week, I have too many talks and am in slight agony, but give 
me a bit of time to hash on it.

Have you checked the attendee list on the wiki? Are all your people in 
attendance on the list?
