Speakers in the programming and design communities

I couldn't find any info on the list what makes the people awesome speakers or criteria for being included on the list. Don't mean to sound negative, but anybody can put up repo with random people names and call them awesome.

Yeah, without any criteria it's just a random list.

There's already a pull request by mashhoodr to add Mashhood Rastgar. (I don't know this person, I'm sure he is legitimately awesome, but if you can add yourself the list is worthless)

It would be interesting to see how many of these people self-asserted their awesome speaking skills.

This is an ongoing, open-source curated list. You can always open an issue with suggestions or add a PR.

Objective/Description (as mentioned by the author) -

Hi, I'm Karl and I'd like to help make it more transparent and easy to find speakers for meetups and conferences. Below I've started to compile a list of awesome speakers and the topics that they have spoken about (in parentheses are future topics of interest to the speaker).

Please add to the list and help make the community better connected and richer.
