    Slide 11, bottom right chart (2nd failure) is off by 10, if we're using a fall-behind pattern.

    Estimated sequence should be 40,50,70 as the team is falling behind 20 by the end of the second sprint. Sorry to nitpick your excellent presentation.

    For those who use Firefox, you can install the Video Download Helper extension, and then start the video. The extension will detect the video URL and let you download it directly.

    Then you just need a video player who can play FLV files. On Linux, Mplayer will work with anything you throw at it :)
