I was thinking along the lines of the Semantic Web Conference and other technical conferences that produce a "Proceedings" journal (without ApacheCon having to go through the expense), where they publish the papers after the conference as a journal, ApacheCon could publish the papers online. it would be more work for the speakers who wish to participate but would probably lead to wider dissemination of their ideas and findings.
