Having just a quick look at it, the biggest points that
i saw was a missing outline at the beginning (it's good
to know what you will hear, so you can decide whether this
talk is something interesting for you).
Then the slides about graphics card technology look somewhat
out of place. I would either leave them out and make a purely
non-technical talk just explaining what OGP is, where we came
from and where we are going. Or make a clear split between
the non-technical and the technical part. Inserting technical
slides inbetween non-technical will just confuse people,
especialy as it has no clear indication at the moment that
something totaly new is comming.
An idea would be, first talk about the technology. About
what has been around in the '90s, what is around today,
how the OSS side of it looks like, where the problems are.
Then switch over to the OGP/non-technical side and explain
where we came from and what we try to do.
In this flow the OGP internal structure (slide 12) doesn't
fit in, so should be left out.
Another way would be first talk about the non-technical
stuff as you did in your slides, put slide 13 and probably
slide 14 too at the end of the non-technical talk.
Maybe insert here a small question round.
Then start with the technolgy overview ('90s and today),
go over to OGA, explain what OGD1 is and what it represents.
Do the demo at the end of it and finally ask for questions.
