DConf 2015 will take place May 27-29 2015 at Utah Valley University in Orem, UT. Awesome, that runs over my birthday (28th). My friends and family won't be too pleased. :-) Just get them to help chip in for the airfare and hotel costs for your birthday present. ;) Or they can come to the conference, too! In any event, are you doing flash talks this year? I don't think I could find something to spend more than 15 minutes talking about this year. Iain

It's a good question. Dr. Dobb's has graciously given me permission to republish them, and I'll post them on http://digitalmars.com/articles. As you can see, I've already done a few of them. Lots more to go.

Yes. -- Andrei I should add that gdc is a topic of much interest so pretty much anything you say would be interesting. I compel you to prepare a full talk. -- Andrei I agree. There's no way you don't have interesting things to talk about! For example, what is your process for integrating dmd changes into gdc? What are the advantages/disadvantages of gdc? What are the biggest challenges you face working on gdc? What's the hardest problem you solved with gdc? How can others help out? Etc.
