We may mention some of it briefly (and some of it is covered in the Tw 
vs. Hg slide), but I don't want to spend too much time on it.  The more 
interested audience will already know, or can read it from the detailed 
evaluation reports I linked in the slide.

Yeah - this is only half (if that) of the KTD so far.  The training 
comes in the second half (e.g.: the scenarios and demos kupfer put in 
his outline he sent to the list the other day).

I still need to workup slides for those.
We will also need to put in links to the page where we will eventually 
have all the training material homed at.

Sure.

Yup, it's not needed anymore.

Nope, pushes only push the containing repository's changesets. 
usr/closed is a nested repository and won't be pushed.

Yeah. The price we pay for having closed code.

I imagined such a reference would be somewhere on the website we would 
link to (as mentioned above)
