I think it looks good. If you need time, I think you can reduce the
beginning 11 slides to a review and be done with it (this is just a
suggestion if you are looking to cut). Your heading on slides 11 and 12,
"History: the solution" has an odd ring to it. Perhaps "Proposed
solutions"? "Early solutions"? I do understand you are coming from
"History: The Problem". Perhaps it is the "History" party this is
bothering me. Maybe just "The Problem" and "Early Solutions" might be
better.

Here's that latest draft.  I just ran through this entire thing, and it
took me 32 minutes.  

This incorporates most of the changes you all suggested.

ALL of the suggestions you all made are excellent.   I am going to make
an attempt to fit them all into the talk, and then do a dry run tomorrow
to see how long it works out to be.  I'll have another draft by EOB
tomorrow.

 

The real problems is that there's too many cool things about EFS for a
40 minute talk, but I'll do my best.  I have to avoid (a) too many
tangents and funny stories, and (b) talking too damn fast.

Here's the draft of the talk for next week.   As usual, compressing
everything EFS is and does into a 40 minute talk isn't easy.

 

I'm going to spend some more time on this on Friday, and probably do
some last minute tweaking next week.

 

I think that rather than more detail about how EFS works, a couple of
real world use cases would be helpful.  I'm thinking about a couple of
slides about how gcc is integrated will be interesting, as well as a
couple that show how EFS itself is managed out of /efs/dist, in
particular how we use releasealiases to manage upgrades.

 

Anyway, feedback (even typos :-P) most welcome.
