Making Debugging Easier". I learned Magic Point and have a small collection of slides ready to go. I was also ready to do an inpromptu "Issuses in Floating Point to Integer Conversion on i386 Processors". I also was hoping to catch up with someone with a good understanding of libaudiofile so we could work together on building an emulation layer so that people can use existing code and link it to my libsndfile instead of libaudiofile. Suppose I'll have to keep all this for next time. I would volunteer to organise the next one but I am a beyond-hopeless organiser.
