My goal is to get him to come to BarCamp and give a talk on Free Software (tricky, eh?).
He is not likely to come unless a lot of people sign up to come to his talk. So if the number is high, he will come with me Sunday.
Please add your name below if you plan to sit in.
Update 11/5/07:
Here is the audio from the talk. The quality is not great. I'll leave it here for a day. If you want to continue to host it, please do so. I don't have bandwidth to spare.

Questions
Do I have to come with a presentation? Not necessarily. Barcamp is about participation. And a presentation can be about a lot of things. Demo a new product. Share a methodology. Participate in a panel. Suggest a topic. Make jello shots, host werewolf or bring your Wii and some games.
I can't make it until around seven on Saturday. How should I reserve a place for a session?
Help Us Get the Word Out!
Here's the boiler plate:
BarCamp is an ad-hoc un-conference born from the desire for people to share and learn in an open environment. It is an intense event with discussions, demos and interaction from attendees.
All attendees must give a demo, a session, or help with one. All presentations are scheduled the day they happen. Prepare in advance, but come early to get a slot on the wall.
Presenters are responsible for making sure that notes/slides/audio/video of their presentations are published on the web for the benefit of all and those who canĂ¢t be present.
Anyone with something to contribute or with the desire to learn is welcome and invited to join.
If you have questions or experience problems, please report them to the BarCamp support forum. For issues related to this wiki, please see the PBWiki Support Forum.
