In my case, I submitted a proposal on behalf of PLD for a annual conference session on maker spaces (see description below). With a nameless person’s assurance that that we could backfill a speaker if the proposal was accepted, I gamely marched forward without a speaker(s) in place. It was a heck of a lot easier to leave that detail until the future. Well, the future is upon me, the proposal was accepted, and I write to you, dear reader, for you help in locating said mysterious speaker(s).
