We are splitting both days into two, morning and afternoon. In the afternoon we are requesting speakers from other GIS or professional organisations to come in and speak about their work with maps. These talks do not have to be about Openstreetmap or free data but it would be good if there was some connection. This will allow us to use the conference as a meeting of minds between volunteer mappers and professional groups. We have 16 30 minute slots available in the two days and two conference rooms. This will be the formal side of the conference, The mornings will be reserved for Openstreetmappers in the non conference format. Details of the Conference here http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/State_Of_The_Map_Scotland_2012 If anyone knows of any groups that would like to speak please let me know. We are also looking for some small sponsorship to pay for Edinburgh University Staff who are needed to let us in.
