Hello Jean-Sébastien and David and Robert,

Thanks for presenting [Robert via Jean-Sébastien]. Yes, it was a standing
room only crowd.

Also thanks to Jean-Sébastien for talking at the Computer Graphics for
Simulation BOF that afternoon. There was a possibility that the webinar
[COMSOL multiphysics] I had arranged would experience technical difficulties
and lead to silent conversion of oxygen to carbon monoxide. However, the
webinar proceeded [Jean-Sébastien was able to decipher my speaker connection
drawing to correct acoustic connections].

Maybe a podcast next year......:)

The COMSOL multiphysics talk focused on hard core simulation on a small
scale [example: a room or small machine,...].

Jean-Sébastien's talk was a repeat [extended since he had more time] of the
Vortex simulation SDK and Robot simulations plus examples he talked about in
the OSG BOF. In the OSG BOF he focused more on OSG, OpenGL and compiling and
less on Vortex. This was simulation on a larger scale [a mine, vehicle
dynamics,...] than the standard COMSOL spatial domain. Just look over his
presentation on the wiki and imagine him talking more on the simulation part
of the talk in the OSG BOF. Vortex - check it out!!!!

I gave a short "Simulation year in review" talk that summarized some trends
in research from several simulation conferences. However, I would not have
been able to speak for an hour so thanks again Jean-Sébastien.

Macintosh Binaries from Alpha Pixel
The execute bit has to be set manually. Not a horrible issue. The package
also in some cases is a 7zip package so the Mac user has to have Stuffit
Deluxe or WinZip to extract. Perhaps a command line will extract. 7zip is
not on the Mac. Probably needs a tutorial on running the executables from
the terminal command line. We [Jean-Sébastien, David, me] could not figure
out the syntax for the command [path's to be set,....,etc.].
