What would we talk about that we don't already on Skype?

If you don't realize, those of us who are very good turn away WAY more work than we ever take on. It's just not hard to get contracts, and to make very good money if you have the least bit of communication skills and are a VERY good developer.
Like I said in the other thread (I won't keep cross posting and keep it in the right forum), this conference isn't necessarily so much for the senior level guys -- it's for the guys who want to be senior level. I'd love to have you speak at such an event about your experiences if you wanted to submit a talk but the concept here is that there are a lot of adult shops with PHP staff that could be better and might find it valuable to send them to such an event and learn something.

So I'd be interested in hearing what your thoughts are with that in mind, coming from the mainstream side of things I am always hearing about larger adult-focused shops starving for quality development skills (or an opportunity to recruit quality skills).
