It was on the dak suite; which is a bunch of scripts used to manage the ftp site, that happen to be named after models and actresses and suchlike. We covered a number of the scripts in detail, and as a joke, included pictures of the girls the rest were named after. That portion of the talk just ended up as a soft-core slideshow though, and, to my mind, didn't come off as particularly funny or enlightening at all. Mike presented that section of the talk, so I wouldn't presume to justify the presentation or apologise for it on his behalf.
