Apologies for being a bit ignorant - what is LGM? Would this be a session at UDS? I am going to be at UDS and as I would very much like to open the discussion for open font tools that are at least as good, easy and intuitive to use as Fontlab currently is.

Typographic OT features can easily be added in Fontlab. Where VOLT comes in is for complex non-Latin stuff which currently FL can't do. For FontForge to be a useful tool, this would have to be added (if not already present). I believe we (Dalton Maag) can add a lot to this discussion as we are on the font design and engineering front line every day. Maybe it is a case of us compiling a wishlist - for UDS - to be up for discussion?
