If we want a Content track, then we'd have to do some work for it! I'd love to see one though, I think we've enough good stuff around Apache to make it a success

We'd need to find a few related projects interested in putting some talks in, work out a marketing message for the track, and ideally work out how we can "pay" our way (in terms of finding a sponsor, or explaining why someone would buy quite a few tickets to see just our talks, or that sort of thing)

Are we up for that bit of extra work this time?

There's also a chance to take part in the hackathon too :)
