I second Fred here... a joint effort between OGo and GNUstep would be a very 
good thing, and we should focus more on applications this year.. (plus the 
classic (?) Gorm demonstration...)

I could do a small presentation of the Help system (HelpViewer, how to 
create help files, etc.). I really hope to improve the help system current 
state before the Fosdem, but even if I can't, a quick presentation of the 
current Helpviewer method could be interesting. Or not, you decide ;-)  
Anyway, gnustep's people are encouraged to do some presentations ! take 
advantage of the fosdem -- the audience won't be very large (mostly gnustep 
devs), but it's interesting nonetheless.
