Very, very nice.

A few comments:

* I'm happy to see translatewiki.net mentioned. Consider also mentioning:
1. The number of languages into which the software is translated -
over 300, probably more than any other piece of software.
2. A lot of unique internationalization features that we support
thanks to being so massively multilingual - plural, gender, custom
grammar rules, mostly automatic RTL adjustment, script conversion for
Chinese, Serbian and some other languages, web fonts, web-based
keyboard layouts and then some.

* Page 8 - JavaScript is usually spelled in CamelCase.
Also on JavaScript - ResourceLoader is probably worth mentioning, even
though it's not so new.

* Page 9 - Consider mentioning Firefox OS in addition to Android and
iOS. Brion and Patrick already poked in that direction. (And well,
it's a FLOSS conference, but since you mention iOS, consider
mentioning the Windows Mobile app too.)

* Page 11 - some other programming languages lurk in extensions, too,
like OCaml (Math), Perl (EasyTimeline) and Lua (Scribunto). There are
people who are quite passionate about each of them - they'll be happy
to hear them mentioned and may want to join the development because of
this.

* Page 12 - I suspect that the LOC count includes translations :)
