[edit] Requested topics

Please list any subjects you'd like to see talks on in the space below. Please sign your request by adding ~~~ (or ~~~~ to add the date as well) and also add your signature to any topics someone else has suggested that you'd like to hear.

There was brief discussion on the discussion mailing list about a desire for more non-technical talks and suggestions/offers on topics not directly related to PHP are very welcome.
