I'm planning to be in town (just moved from SD) for RubyCon and work. I'll probably go on Tuesday to see Gerald Jay Sussman and Robert Hass.
Sussman (from just down the street at MIT) Is the author of the insanely influentual "Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs". book. He will speak on "Why Programming is a Good Medium for Expressing Poorly Understood and Sloppily Formulated Ideas" from MIT.
Robert Hass was the Poet Laureate of the United States from 1995 to 1997 and will be speaking on "Creativity" for the Keynote.
I've been to two past OOPSLAs (Vancouver and Atlanta) and it is all chock full of Qualitative Goodness.
