I think your ideas definitely sound good. One question I have is how
to handle the languages. Should it be only English, or should there
be some Portuguese sessions too?
Perhaps we should set up a wiki page to start organizing it? Things
like ideas for sessions, time slots, etc. It doesn't need to be
complicated.

If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of
exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an
idea, which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps
it to himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into
the possession of everyone, and the receiver cannot dispossess himself
of it. - Thomas Jefferson
