Just for the record, in case we get other people interested in running a BoF, from http://wiki.debconf.org/wiki/Glossary a BOF is defined as: BOF stands for: Birds of a Feather. This is typically a loosely organized gathering of people interested in a particular subject. Often called the hallway tracks at other conferences. A BOF is similar to a discussion, in that it is not a talk, or a panel, but a loosely organized discussion amongst like- minded individuals working on a particular subject. A BOF should be lead by someone who coordinates the time and place, and keeps the discussion going. The person leading a BOF is not responsible for giving a talk, in fact is discouraged from doing so, it is not a BOF if one person talks to a group of people, that is a talk. For JVM languages, we can also have a panel... P
