Adding Comcast Mobile Dev Conference for 2022

@cketti what's your take here?

Including the name of the company in the conference name makes it sound like a marketing event. It doesn't look like they're paying speakers. I'd hate for this to become the new normal for developer conferences. But it could still provide value to mobile developers. So I don't mind if we include this in the calendar.

Greetings,

I agree with you sentiments. We pushed for the company name to not be in the title, but alas, the conference is free and we are not paying speakers.. We are helping some speakers with expenses, however. The conference committee is full of folks who are involved in the many wonderful community driven conferences such as DroidCon. So don't worry, serving the dev community is our top priority.

Thanks!
