I think you completely miss the point of KS here. It is not the venue for someone
presenting long material on something and "selling" it, but for free
discussion on specific topics.  That is why the invitee list is so
closely controlled to make sure these productions are productive.

If there are any presentations they should be very short and merely be a 
quick intro -- anything elaborate is not really welcome. That's quite different 
from other conferences.
