Also consider this. If we have noone there, nxt related questions may rise anyway. And they can say something not so good about it. So we must have someone to speak up for Nxt.
That's another valid point. Whoever is talking to Adam about the event,
I'd recommend explaining the situation. We have a network engineer heading down to Miami that handles some PR and organization efforts with Nxt. He's not a programmer but versed in the direction of the coin and has a pulse on the community involvement. Would that work for your panel?
I've met Adam and been on LTB for Feathercoin in the past. Great group of people, I know they just want the best interviews possible.
I think dzarmush has made a very strong case for making sure SOMEONE represents Nxt at "Let's Talk Bitcoin".
As it stands, NiftyNickel will be at the conference, and we have not yet heard from him whether he's game. My guess is he'd step up if needed, but of course I don't know him at all. Given the short timeframe we have, instead of asking "who is the most qualified to speak", we should ask "who thinks they'd be more prepared to handle this discussion than NiftyNickel". If NiftyNickel is the best person we have to represent Nxt at the moment, then let's establish that ASAP.
