What to expect(For in person meeting):
According to Wikipedia, Aaron Swartz "was an American computer programmer, entrepreneur, writer, political organizer and Internet hacktivist who was involved in the development of the web feed format RSS and the Markdown publishing format, the organization Creative Commons, the website framework web.py and the social news site, Reddit, in which he became a partner after its merger with his company, Infogami. He committed suicide while under federal indictment for data-theft, a prosecution that was characterized by his family as being "the product of a criminal-justice system rife with intimidation and prosecutorial overreach"".
"The Internet's Own Boy: The Story of Aaron Swartz" is a documentary about the life of Aaron, his technical achievements and his work in social justice and political organization.
Official site
The EFF has a good article on Aaron and the movie.
See Lawrence Lessig's keynote from last year's SCaLE for an example of what Aaron was able to inspire.

The film features interviews with Tim Berners-Lee, Cindy Cohn (EFF), Gabriella Coleman, Cory Doctorow, Peter Eckersley (EFF), Lawrence Lessig, Reprasentative Zoe Lofgren, Tim O'Reilly and other people we should know more about.
