[Wikimedia-SF] 2 SF Speaker request

[Jay A. Walsh]

Hi folks,

I have two requests for speakers in the Bay Area.  Both have said they would be very happy to have experienced WP editors. Discussions would both be 
generally about WP and the projects.  Let me know if you're interested and I will do a link-up.

This one is tentatively set for mid-May:

And these folks are looking for someone Feb 19 (or somewhere in that area)
