I'd love to. And the topic would be something like
Java is not a proprietary language: and here's the proof:
Classpath, IKVM, Jaos, Kaffe, Wonka, ...
However, frankly I suspect that the JavaPolis agenda is set by their
sponsors, and that some of these would not want to hear such a talk. So let's
by all means propose a paper or two for next year (like I already did this
year) _and then_ if it is refused, just convene our own alternative
conference at a nearby location.
In the meantime, is there anything planned for FOSDEM? E.g., an open-source
Java track? This could be an opportunity the thesis that the future of Java
lies with us, not with S*n.
Up the workers,
