Remote talks

[johannhof]

We should have a page in this repo that compiles a list of people who would be willing to do remote talks, e.g. @steveklabnik . Maybe including what they could possibly talk about and if they could also host a remote workshop.

I get asked a lot how one could get in touch with remote Rust speakers and I feel the best way would be to make a new issue in this repo about the specific event and then we try to match them with speakers.

@erickt @skade I'd love to collect a small initial sample of remote speakers before resolving this issue, do you know anyone who would be interested to appear on that list?

We've also talked elsewhere about adding a field to rustaceans.net for whether someone is interested in speaking about Rust, and possibly the locations to which they'd be able to travel to speak or time zones that they'd be willing to speak remotely in. There should probably be some level of vetting that a random speaker won't actively provide misinformation; I'm not sure where that'd fit.

We could add a "previous talks" section, that would also be a cool thing by itself.
