Hi Adam, bytevolcano, misc@, This is very sad to hear, everyone loves these sessions and always asks. If you can not attend, if you're poor (or from an underdeveloped region) if you're an enthusiast without company / employment sponsorship, or any other sort of financial coverage for the expenses, you're left cold out. As an example of what to expect you can see some old tutorial recordings from the 2014 EuroBSDcon held in Sofia, Bulgaria. These are invaluable: https://va.ludost.net/files/eurobsdcon/2014/Pirin/01.Thursday/ https://va.ludost.net/files/eurobsdcon/2014/Pirin/02.Friday/ And if the video recordings of BSDCan are not available, or can not have the tutorial sessions we hope the new https://2017.eurobsdcon.org/ will. It is the live meetings that make the conferences magical for attendees, then video recordings are precious for the wider community, and history. It is most certain the presenters would love to see the sessions online. When there is a will, there is a way: all other reasons are meaningless. Congratulations on the OpenBSD 6.1 release, just in time for April 12th, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Day_of_Human_Space_Flight].
