To do the editing of HD videos we need presentation slides which are

them all in github.com/dlang/dlang.org repo - please submit pull
requests asap!

Just a minor complaint - would it be possible for the next dconf to have
the slides (or a link to them) on dconf.org before the talk starts?
Thanks for the great work!

I think it's better to not have the slides available until the talk
starts.

No, you are wrong. It would be really nice to have them. I would say it
was one of the biggest failures of dconf for people who can't attend.

You only *need* the slides for when you can watch the talk. Having the slides beforehand may be confusing and unhelpful. This means there is no reason to provide the slides until the talk actually happens.

I almost want to say, if you need to see the presentation live, attend the conference :) In some past conferences, there were no live streams, and people survived. It's nice to have, but it somewhat removes the incentive to support the conference by attending.

There may be jokes/surprises in the slides that you don't want to give
away before the talk happens :)


If there is anything you do not want to make available before talks. You
don't have to ;).

But then the slides provided online don't match the slides you are showing. That is not good.
