Adds content for the new "Subject Matter Experts" initiative.
What is "Subject Matter Experts"?
The SME initiative is new for 2025. This will be a panel of volunteers drawn from industry experts, working group members, security and observability experts, and maintainers and contributors to open source GraphQL projects. When evaluating the talks, they will focus on how exciting and engaging the talks are; contrasting with the TSC who focus more on talk quality and whether it is a good fit for the conference.
