Just to clarify. I showed one slide about this. I probably talked about it for 3 minutes, like i did for everything else in this category. For me, the presenter, this was about showcasing what people can do with the API.
I also like to say, that Mark approached me, like many others, when i asked for showcase material a few weeks back. His project was choosen, by me, as he presented it me on a level that made it technical interesting to talk about. The presentation is online at the XTech2007 site, if someone likes to verify this. And I do plan to continue to talk about it, assuming Mark does not revoke this. It is a great API showcase, and that is the only thing that i care about.
