Keynote_Speakers: How about a research/academic topic for some cool new Eclipse-based tool or product?
Improve_Next_Year: I think running the short talks/demos in parallel with the tutorials would add more exposure for these items; maybe running them once on tutorial day, and once on the long talk days (if the presenters were willing)?

Also, recording the demos/short talks and posting those to the web for those that could not attend them; or broadcasting them while they were in session (slides and closed-caption text) in a web based format for people attending other long talks. Attendees would be able to get the highlights of the short talk/demo on their laptops while attending another long talk. Ideally, it would be the picture-in-picture equivalent of a technical presentation (\"presentation-in-presentation\"?).
