I can offer that as we try and plan the event, we're mostly seeing if we get enough interest to offer a lightning talk session.

Maybe it's just me, but doesn't It seem a bit odd to submit proposals
months in advance for lightning talks? My experience of lightning
talks is that people can sign up for them at the event, so they can be
more spontaneous and of-the-moment.
