As you have already guessed, Steve Jobs will be giving the keynote this year at the 2008 World Wide Developer’s Conference. This morning Apple issued a press release giving more details.

CUPERTINO, Calif., May 13 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ — Apple(R) today announced that a team of Apple executives, led by CEO Steve Jobs, will kick off the company’s annual Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) with a keynote address beginning at 10:00 a.m. on Monday, June 9, 2008 at San Francisco’s Moscone West. This year’s WWDC will showcase two revolutionary development platforms, the ground-breaking innovations of OS X Leopard(R) and OS X iPhone(TM), the world’s most advanced mobile operating system.
The five-day WWDC event, which runs from June 9 to June 13, will feature the first ever iPhone track for mobile developers with in-depth sessions and hands-on labs to fully explore the capabilities of the OS X iPhone 2.0 software, including the iPhone SDK and the App Store, a breakthrough way for developers to wirelessly deliver their applications to iPhone and iPod(R) touch users.
The iPhone track will also enable mobile developers to work side by side with Apple engineers to create amazing applications that leverage iPhone’s revolutionary Multi-Touch(TM) user interface, animation technology, rich set of APIs, including programming interfaces for Core OS, Core Services, Media and Cocoa(R) Touch technologies, built-in three axis accelerometer and geographical location technology to deliver truly innovative mobile applications.
This year’s Mac(R) track will give newcomers and seasoned veterans alike the technical foundation and techniques needed to develop world-class OS X Leopard applications with sessions that discuss every level of the system, including interface design and implementation, application frameworks, security, localization and networking.
WWDC 2008 will offer over 150 information-rich sessions and labs where Apple engineers will go in-depth on the innovative technologies that power
OS X iPhone and OS X Leopard. Developers can bring code to the labs and work one-to-one with Apple engineers, applying development methods and
best-practices gained from sessions to enhance their applications.

OS X iPhone, OS X Leopard and innovative tools and technologies such as
the iPhone SDK, Cocoa Touch, Interface Builder, Xcode(R) and more;
