This looked OK until... until today I clicked on

http://apacheconeu2014.sched.org/event/6ab6772bd382bb86151c1f43adb8ef26

and saw that the title, speaker (me, next to title) and abstract look 
correct and similar to the values I submitted, but at a closer look the 
speaker bio under the abstract is not mine: it's the one of Christian 
Schneider.

Indeed if you look at
http://apacheconeu2014.sched.org/speaker/christianschneider
you'll see that Christian is reported to be giving about 20 talks with 
half a dozen different identities... something has to be fixed here.

Regards,
   Andrea.

Thanks. This should be resolved now. Seems it was an upstream problem 
with Sched.
