*FOSDEM is a hacker conference and we would be happy to see more practical 
proposals, crazy ideas and open source projects demonstrations than dry 
scientific papers (we will leave them for ILC and ELS :-P). *

That'll sure get them going in comp.lang.lisp :D.  We've a broader view on 
things here.  

This looks interesting ....

Ms Sandler looks to be asking the right questions.  I wonder how far she 
can go in this direction until she starts getting static from the people 
who built her career.  My guess is that she'll be forced to pull her 
punches.
