I met Nils last year when he visited California, and he's a great guy!
I hope people take him up on these offers.  It is an excellent way to
spread the word about Nmap far and wide.  And there is so much new
stuff to talk about!  NSE, Zenmap, Ncat, Ndiff, and on and on!  I
speak at conferences when I can (such as CanSecWest earlier this
month), but there is always room for more speakers.  And if you've
always wanted to present, but hesitated, this is a great way to start.

Writing an article about Zenmap is even easier--you don't have the
stress of getting up in front of hundreds of people.  And heck, Zenmap
is already very well documented at http://nmap.org/book/zenmap.html.
Surely one of the Zenmap aficionados has some tips and tricks to
share?

German speakers (writers) are especially well qualified, though Nils
says that English is fine too.

Cheers,
