The format is under discussion, as are the dates. 
What do you think about proposing something like having teo "core" days on the 
weekend, and one or two days before that for end usre talks and workshops?

Something like: thee mroe technical oriented, and inter-software operation 
talks for subjects like GEGL, the Create Raster format, etc..all would be 
scheduled on Saturday, and on Sunday we schedule inter-team BOFs and other 
thing, like the in the first LGM), and thurday and friday would have "using 
the GIMP", "doing great art with Inskcape", maybe a plug-in creation 
workshop, and such? 


(btw, at my regular job, if I am going to an itnernational conference, I can 
have the extra days off)
