Irrespective of who volunteers for this, please do keep in mind that
you will be the face of the Free and Open Source community. Do stress
upon the best aspects of the culture and community and, please do not
engage in a bad-mouthing of other software development models or,
spread FUD. If you have a story to share that is personal and, is
relevant to the talk, it would perhaps be ideal to share that, your
audience would be able to relate to you much quickly.

I realize that we all "know" the above. Repeating it doesn't do harm.
Just as profusely thanking the volunteer who will take time out to be
the speaker at this event.
