However I don't know if that would be a particularly appealing discussion for the general public.
I can't make it this year (the conference is coincident with one I need to attend for work), but I'd like to chime in and say it would be nice to have a git pre-commit script that we could offer to people that properly formats patches. I'd say it's at least a good candidate to fill a hole, I know that I'd be interested in tuning in to it once it's available online ;)
