I am also scheduled for the "Workshop 3.4 Exploring practical solutions to ensure long term sustainability of open source software".
Geertjan - agree on both - beer a day before and a zoom call to prepare - likely with Molly/Joe involved to get their help on messaging, and view. Related to what DW wrote - yep. We should always speak as individuals, but I think we can be better prepared and not caught by "press" if we got some kind of briefing from Molly/Joe. I have no experience speaking at EU forums, but I remember when I was speaking at a big banking conference when I was in a small Mobile Payment startup, I appreciated a lot all the briefing, help and suggestions from the people with PR/Marketing experience and I think that was one of the best prepared talks of mine. (I actually quit the startup soon after because I realized at that very conference that what our CEO was selling us internally was a complete dreampipe, but that's a completely different story :D). Best time for me is Tuesday, Thursday or Friday next week - anything before 3pm CET should work. J.
