Wow, this sorta... Snuck up on me. MythTV 0.22 won't be released by
next week, and there won't be a new MythDora release just yet, but I
think there's still plenty to talk about... :)

Now, I don't actually have anything prepared yet, so hey, why not get
the ball rolling now: what exactly do people planning to attend most
want to hear about? VDPAU? The HD PVR? New and interesting things in
the world of LIRC? Potential commercial ventures utilizing MythTV?
