Well, since they are open, I'm willing to listen to suggestions. We
are also still planning on a panel/Q&A session on a topic, which has
not been fully determined yet. Topics of interest that I've had in my
discussions with people include hardware systems, signal processing
co-processors (GPU, DSP, FPGA, etc.), SDR education, and how to
increase the developer base.

Anything you are particularly interested in?
