Re: More Dconf 2015 videos
There have been a few responses agreeing with me. Chucks talk was awesome but the current edit doesn't do it justice. Is there any way this can be fed back to UVU/Chuck etc.? Did so. -- Andrei Cheers! A.

Did so. -- Andrei While we are sending them feedback could they include the talk titles in the YouTube titles to make them easier to find. The editing overall has been great. I've been pleasantly surprised. I was kind of expecting a fixed camera thrown up by an undergrad for some extra credit. It's really great that the change in venue hasn't resulted in a drop in video quality.

Regards, Andy. Agreed; this was the one talk where I had to hunt down the slides on dconf.org, and then figure out where in the slides the code examples lived. Since the code examples are tiny pictures with links from the slides, this took me some figuring out.
