Hey yall, I'm the author of said code and we can officially make it open. It just hadn't occurred to me yet that anyone would think about using it, but I wrote it as a volunteer so we can give it a GNU or BSD or CC license, or whatever you all would prefer, and I'll update the source with said license. I'd be more than happy to also supply the backend php that does xml, json, csv, and xslt on the xml for the presentation, and db schema (which is pretty simple) for reference to anyone that wants it - you can't really scrape it.. -Lindsey Simon

Yeah, this would be an excellent foundation to build out a two-way tool... one where you can vote for sessions on-demand (think real-time remote participation) as well as propose sessions within days of an actual event (rather than months out).
Would you be comfortable hosting this with Google Hosting or DevJaVu (devjavu.com) or your repository?
Excellent!

I'm cool with hosting it, no problemo. Let me get it packaged up in such a fashion as to make it decent for distribution and I'll post the link in here. -l
