James Governor and Steven O'Grady of RedMonk will be moderating an unconference. Any subject is fair game, but open source will likely be the common thread. Propose and lead a session, or be an active participant. Here are some possibilities:
- Open source license dork-out hour
- Governance and Process: Running open source projects
- Using Blogging to Get Stuff Done, intra and cross-company
- Bottom Up Marketing
- So you took over the enterprise: what now?
- Dynamic Languages and Java, catching up with .Net's CLR?
Schedule this moderated session!
If you have any ideas for agenda items please post them here at the RedMonk Unconference wiki:

William Gibson once said that "the future is already here, it's just unevenly distributed." RedMonk analysts spend their days learning from the communities that are defining the future of technology, distilling their findings into free research, and explaining the likely impact. The core thesis that guides much of their work is that technology adoption is increasingly a bottom up proposition. The supporting evidence abounds; think Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP, Firefox, or Eclipse. All of these are successful because they've built from the ground floor, often in grassroots fashion.
