    just put some sort of indicator on the "board" when you announce your session. Also, don't be shy, the crowd/group at BarCamps is always very supportive, and forgiving.

    Actually, any language is acceptable, but be aware of potentially limiting your audience, by using something other than "bad English".

    by "something other" i was meaning Finnish, Swedish, Russian etc.

    Oh, and by "bad english" i was meaning everything that is not perfectly clear "BBC style" Queens English :P

    Really, thanks for pointing it out, I am "testing" my wording here before posting on Facebook, Wiki etc. (as the general level of IQ seems to be higher on Jaiku than most other places on "teh Intardwebs" i find, if you ignore all of my typos)
