We've mentioned this to Nicolas Belett Vigneron, a Breton speaker in Rennes and long term Wikipedian and Wikisourceian, and also Rebecca O'Neill of Wikimedia Community Ireland (not a native Irish Gaelic speaker, but interested in promoting the language) and I will also reach out to some Irish Gaelic speakers in the west of Ireland that were interested in working with Wikipedia as an education tool.

Hi Ewan,
Good to see you on Monday.
The Australian editor I mentioned, who is heavily involved in Noongarpedia:

is Gideon Digby:

He or one of his colleagues from that project would be an excellent speaker for your event.
