As we speak, my copy just left the motorcycle dealer and is

Forgot to mention: I find the cover very neat and of great taste.

Would you recommend considering at least some of Blurb.com's 
competitors as well? Who?


Right.

Blurb has a number of pages limitation that would require a two 
volumes release of your book. :/ Lulu can make it to 740 pages. 
CreateSpace offers packages up to 828 pages. Both can distribute 
through Amazon. Prices are somewhat similar...


I found this post interesting:

Otherwise did you contact any publisher?

Super!

Huge thx for all the nice work btw.

Questions:

1. Does the book have been entirely translated then..?

2. Would you agree to configure a print version through 
Blurb.com? This way we could get a copy through amazon like ... 
tomorrow ;)

Hi,

I would love to spam my colleges here at Ubisoft Montreal with
DConf 2014 talks ... but UStream is blocked studio wide.

Is there any plans to mirror the talks somewhere else? We can
stream from Vimeo and Youtube.

I won't force feed every programmer here ... but we are at least
500 mainly coding C++ and C#. IMHO we are first class potential
victims for D.

Thx,

Olivier

Dicebot has been uploading them on youtube:

http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaYYN56VR7Z4SSoO7ws0-jA/videos

I use his channel, as every web video player I've ever used 
blows in its own special way but youtube is the least bad.


Nice! Thank you.

If I may... this channel should be advertised properly, something 
more official. Else, you'll probably end up referencing that link 
often in the coming weeks. People should not have to dig in forum 
threads to find your good stuff; the prime time talks of 2014.


My two cents,

Olivier

Sorry I know its annoying to have someone telling you guys what 
to do. I would rather post a sticky thread, referencing Dicebot's 
channel, myself but I'm brand new here and don't have any 
credentials to do so.
