Thinking about this a bit more, maybe Jeff would be more appropriate as a user keynote.  Longer and deeper roots to the Eclipse Ecosystem, and very broad use of eclipse.

 

So right now I’d +1 Jeff over other ideas I’d proposed for user perspective.

One suggestion I have is considering a "case study" as a keynote. I personally really like what NASA has done with the Eclipse stack. Jeff Norris [1] get an interesting talk at the last EclipseDay @ Google around NASA's adoption of Eclipse technology... from RCP... to EMF... to Equinox. It's a compelling story for me at least.

Wayne, et al,
Actually, I think Kent's message could be a good one: he's talking in public how to make money with open source as a small ISP/developer. And he's not just talking: he's actively trying this and that and the other thing. I think that could be a good talk.

Uncle Bob +1 -- his RailsConf keynote was so amazing I wouldn't mind having something like that at EclipseCon.

-1 on Kent Beck. As much as I hate to say it, I'm cold on Kent Beck. I have tremendous respect for the man, but I feel that he's gone a little funny over the last few months and am concerned about too much negativity in the message.
