Jason McCay, SaaS Panel Member
Chris Matthieu, SaaS Panel Member
Lori Olson, “Consultants & Rockstars, Who needs 'em?”
Collin Schaafsma, “Kick Your Project in the Mouth”

A few other non-technical craftsmen are also in the line-up. We are planning to include a brew master and cheese maker but either are subject to change.
There is also a git workshop, “Working Effectively With Git”, run by Scott Chacon from Github.
