Thanks, Sebastian.
I added my name to the list of attendees.
First of all, I'd like to encourage you to give your technologically-bent presentations. I'd love to hear about them. I don't know why you seem reluctant about the link between technology and open data — for me they are very much connected…
Now, I myself work on dictionaries and I could offer to do a more conceptual presentation on dictionaries as web-services and the importance for lexicography to move toward linked data etc. Needless to say, if we ever hope to create a global lexicographic infrastructure, that can be achieved ONLY if we serve open data… I could show examples of the projects I've been involved with and would very much enjoy a discussion about what would be the best was to open our data to the world (e.g. our WordNet-based Serbian-English dictionary, or our Serbian morphosyntactic database etc…)
Please let me know if you think this would be ok as a topic, and then I will add it to the schedule.
All best,
T.

Christian could give a presentation about OLiA and POWLA and I could say something about NIF, NLP2RDF and the conversion of Wiktionary to RDF, but these are rather presentations about technology and only partially related to Open Data. I am not quite sure, if technology actually plays a role in opening up data. It could be just a coincidence that the interlinking and opening movement happen at the same time.
