Nah, you are KDE developers so these are KDE views, moreover Brad and Hamish 
are e.V. members so what more you want?

It depends if it is a user directed talk or not. I mean from a user POV i 
don't care about Qt4 or Akonadi, but from a devel POV i care, so you first 
have to sort out which audience are you targetting.

I'd say it does.
