[activities] Re: [SLUG-ANNOUNCE] SLUG_Jan_Call_for_Speakers

It would be great to have a round-up of conference talks.

There will have been OSDC in December and LCA in January.
Maybe a few people can report and summarise some talks?

I'm certainly happy to give a report on the FOMS workshop, too.
And on the Multimedia miniconf at LCA.
And on my talks from OSDC.
That would summarise all the multimedia-releted stuff from those conferences.

Cheers,
Silvia.
