Talks
We will host talks in the auxiliary room, BEWARE the projector we'll be using has an 800x600 resolution (unless you can bring a better one, contact us!)
Try to talk no more than 10 to 15 minutes, slots are 20 minutes to leave room for questions and to let the next speaker prepare. Please keep the technical stuff fairly lightweight and digestible as we're expecting a mixed audience.
| Slot | Topic | Who |
|---|---|---|
| 16:00-16:20 | Keynote: brief overview of TechInc | YOU |
| 16:20-16:40 | Quadcopters | JnX, maybe others? |
| 16:40-17:00 | Realitygaps | |
| 17:10-17:30 | Package management for beginners | User:voidz0r |
| 17:30-17:50 |
More slots can be added after dinner/BBQ (don't hesitate to do so!).
