I'd like to propose you a presentation I could do during the Fosdem: a presentation about FLOSS and Average Jane or Joe = why we need to reach the whole public, to explain the FLOSS 'philosophy... Because people don't know the ideal that is behind FLOSS. And because "normal" people can do a lot of things to help to spread FLOSS. So I'd like also to give some ideas of easy contributions towards the public.
It's not clear to me what the target audience of your presentation is. If the target audience is 'Average Jane or Joe', it's a lot like preaching to the converted at FOSDEM: we're all convinced of open source already; so convinced in fact that we develop open source software (not the D in FOSDEM). If the intent is to instruct developers in how to better communicate with "muggles" on the other hand, it might fit in the "Community" track if there's room for it on the schedule.
Do you think it would be possible to do this presentation?
