Other more informal sessions can include Hackathons on the Monday and =
Tuesday before the main conference.

Also, there are more informal "Fast Feather" sessions where people =
present current projects and ideas.

If I have clearance to go, I've been thinking about a related CFP or =
Fast Feather discussing a PDF to PowerPoint processor that we've built =
at work using PDFBox and POI.

If I am there I'd discuss the CMS.

Regards,
Dave
