I took a bunch of design detail photos, probably not what you're
looking for:

Thanks, Bob K.


Thanks, that was quite interesting and better than nothing.

On a wider note, it's quite possible to make conferences accessible
for more than just those who can go. Presentations can be put on the
web as ppt or pdfs, and audio of the presentation can be recorded and
distributed as a podcast (much more can be done -- live streaming,
video podcasts etc. but that's all trickier to execute and not really
needed).

It's a shame more conferences don't provide "remote coverage" in this
way. Yes, much of what a conference is about is the face-to-face chats
and networking, but saving the presentations in this way would be of
benefit to people who attended and want to look up details afterwards
too, I bet.

Ah well, I can dream...
