[Rdap] Keynote suggestions

[Paula Lackie]

At EyeO 2012 <http://eyeofestival.com/2012/speaker/amanda-cox/> I heard a
rather shy (at the time) Amanda Cox
<http://www.niemanlab.org/2012/06/how-a-statistics-major-became-graphics-editor-at-the-new-york-times/>
give a compelling talk about the philosophy behind how the NYT was
beginning to deliver interactive, data-rich, journalism. So much has
happened since then & I think it would be a great idea to help bridge the
cowboy-style open-data people with more professional data curation.  The
bottom line being using data for good, never for evil.

Another down-to-earth speaker is Kim Rees
<http://eyeofestival.com/2014/speaker/kim-rees-2/>. She can also bridge
between data-viz and understanding. Without open data these data-hackers
wouldn't be able to produce what they do.

Good luck! (I wish I could go to RDAP.)
