Quickfire show and tell

First session of the first day: a rapid-fire procession of (ideally) all participants - who are you? why are you here? and what do you do with WordPress? A good icebreaker, and an opportunity for participants to single out the people they want to chat to later. I felt it's the one thing we sorely missed last time. - Simon Dickson

Writing for blogs

Content, style, generating article ideas

• Chris Garrett Happy to do this one or one below

Building Audience + Community

attracting and connecting with readers

• Could be a talk, panel or talk + Q&A? Chris Garrett

Localisation (into Welsh + other languages)

Maybe not enough interest for all 'delegates', but is relevant locally to Cardiff.

More and more public bodies and civic groups are using WordPress for their blogs or for building websites which they either need or desire to have in both languages (English and Welsh), but the WordPress.org translation is out of date.

A chance to bring developers, volunteer translators and potential users (who might even pay for translations!) together and hopefully spur more up-to-date translations?--Rhys 09:52, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

MegaPress - Integrating WordPress Mu, BuddyPress and bbPress

Getting all the *Press stuff working together, and enabling a single login across it all. - Simon Wheatley

Enterprise and Corporate WordPress

These days some 70% of our work comes from developing WordPress solutions for large organisations. As it's a little niche for some this may be best suited to the smaller room. I can cover the specifics of what large companies tend to look for and need, and discuss some recent cases. David Coveney of Interconnect IT

WordPress for News Organisations

By the time WordCamp comes around, we will have implemented one significant news website which (we believe) is likely to be one of the most sophisticated WordPress installations worldwide. I'd like to cover some of the challenges met, how we solved them, demonstrate the solution, and discuss what we learned - all in a short talk. David Coveney of Interconnect IT

From fag packet to 202 sites in 2 days

The unexpurgated story of the design and development of the Twestival site, built using WordPress MU. Tony Scott
