The slides will be finished by or on saturday afternoon. I can write a
script to do that.

That is new thing, and i have only seen one. Traditionally (and I
believe my early talk on "How to compile a kernel" was one of the first)
they have been lecture style events with the odd question - and the
speaker having the right to ignore questions. Somtimes they include
actual typing and stuff but that is rare. Gregs talk was unique in that
it was a blow by blow "if I type this it does that" type of event.

It's my personal opinion and I base everything I do around how I would
do it, I can't very well try nd guess how someone else would do it :) As
for discussing it that would impede my partying by several hours and not
really achieve anything :)
