This is certainly interesting in itself. It is also mainly about
project management, if I understand correctly, and as you have
touched on it yourself, it could be seen as a departure from the
main conference topics, which are Python and Zope.

While I definitly wouldn't mind one more business talk, I'm not so
sure I'd like to see the conference scope being extended by an en-
tire track or day dedicated to project management issues.
