  • Interesting subject, improvable recording

    by Nils Wloka,

    Your message is awaiting moderation. Thank you for participating in the discussion.

    While the subject itself (and most probably the presentation) seems to be very interesting, the recording unfortunately fails to capture the essence of it. The live demo (which makes up a substantial part of the presentation) obviously hasn't been recorded. This makes it impossible to actually follow the points the speaker is making in the latter half of the talk.
