Alan made a Zoom recording.  I would guess that it will be made public.

The QA session was not recorded.  I found it very interesting, but then I 
would since I asked too many of the questions.

Please tell me there is a recording.  I forgot about it and this sounded
really interesting.

Thought that timing was likely but did find the previously listed
possibility
as 'interesting'.

Having long term issues in trying to run a multi-gpu system and lately
adding
a 4k hdmi monitor monitor into a now 5 monitor display sub-system I also
have more than a question or two that I would love some answers for.
Likely won't be asking any questions as I'm finding that most of the Linux
community doesn't use multi-gpu setups unless its for computing horse
power or electronic currency mining which needs are quite different than
for a very heavy screen real estate system (better not to frustrate other
attendees!).

Thanks for confirming the scheduling.

Regards

The actual meeting will be at 7:30 PM on 2021 August 10.
I think that the rest of the message is correct.

We are really lucky getting Alyssa Rosenzweig to talk.  She's doing 
important and tricky work providing open drivers for pervasive hardware.  
Reverse engineering hardware as complex as a GPU is astonishingly 
difficult.

The Linux graphics stack is enormous and I don't understand it at all 
well.  I really look forward to Alyssa's talk: it should fill in one tile 
of the mosaic.  I hope to ask Alyssa if she knows a Royal Road to 
understanding the stack.
