OSCON 2005: Suggestions?

I had a great time at the Open Source Convention this year, and I'm already thinking how nice it would be to go back to speak next year. My presentation this year drew a very small crowd, though -- only about a dozen people.

Obviously I'd like to talk about Mozilla-based technology, but also have it be something the community would be more interested in. So this entry is to invite your suggestions on what you think OSCON should hear about Mozilla. Besides the marketing stuff that Mitchell Baker and Bart Decrem handled so very nicely this year...

One idea crossing my mind is the eXtensible Tag Framework, which just landed on the trunk today. I was alerted to its existence via replies to this weblog, and I am astounded at the concept. It's beautiful.

(For those of you who haven't followed this blog all that long: it just so happens that I have the lowest expenses of any OSCON attendee. My parents live right across the Columbia River from Portland, OR, the convention city. So it's really a nice bonus to go up there.)
