Hi all,
Here's a link to a first draft of the slides for my xmonad talk this Saturday. Doubtless they are too long/short, full of typoeos, and missing vital information. But I thought you might enjoy seeing what I've got so far, and if anyone feels like looking through them I'd welcome your feedback, whether positive or critical. All I ask is that you not distribute/disseminate this link, since these will probably change before the talk based on feedback and my own editing. I'll post the final version prominently after the talk.

PS It looks like the talk definitely will be recorded on video (knock on wood), so of course I'll post that afterwards as well!
Looking great! One thing I've learned the hard way doing a few presentations is that many projectors are 800x600. Some of the images in your slides have already been shrunk enough to make it hard to make them out. Put them up on the wall in low DPI and 800x600, and they would be barely better than abstract colour blurs. Maybe put the images on their own slides? They're essential, especially the Xinerama one, and they should be as prominent as possible. Looking forward to seeing the video. Braden Shepherdson shepheb
