Well keynotes are usually tied into the theme of a conference.. so
suggesting the Red Hat CEO might not be good if that is not the theme. What
is the theme of Flock? [And sorry if I am missing something obvious.]
I'm not sure there's a set theme. I'm also not sure you need one to
come up with keynote speakers. Find people doing really interesting
stuff with Fedora that we don't normally see, or find people using
Fedora in high profile places to discuss why they use it, etc.
Another idea could be to look at the resulting talks submitted and
perhaps do keynote speakers based on the tracks that fall out from
those. E.g. if you have a kernel track, an ARM track, a security
track, and a design track, you could invite keynote speakers that are
from each of those communities.
I think the options are fairly open ended, but the end result should
be speakers relevant in some way to Fedora.
