Re: [eclipsecon-na-program-committee] September 10 Meeting Follow-up

Jeffrey Hammond from Forrester Research could be a potential keynote that
would cover mobile.  I've seen Jeffrey speak and he does a great job.   

I do agree we don't want an Android pitch as a keynote.  I am fine having
Android development sessions.

Follow-up

I have seen Tim Bray from Google several times delivering a keynote about
mobile and Android. But I think he has moved out of mobile at Google.  Other
than him I can't think think of a non-technical person to deliver a keynote.
And we don't want an Android sales pitch at EclipseCon I assume. :-)
