She said "I can't picture you swearing... there's a whole other side to you!" Similar story here: I've never been one to shy away from swearing (not that I normally seek it out just for the heck of it or anything - though some might might that surprising ), but back in high school it seemed like *every* time I'd swear, there was always somebody around who'd get a deer-in-the-headlights look on their face and say "Nick! I've never heard you swear before!" My mental-only response was always "Uhh, you must not have heard me talk much before..." ;) Which was probably quite likely, mainly since... BTW that's one thing about in-person conferences that is kinda meta-fascinating too, seeing people rather than just email text. Even if I knew what some of you look and sound like from previous videos or pictures, it was still a bit of a surprise to meet there. Of course, at the same time, while I'm fairly talkative and even a little forward on emails, in person I tend to prefer to just hide in a corner until someone approaches me, but even then just kinda slinker off and go back to hiding before long so yeah. Yea, same here. I can be a regular chatterbox in this NG, but in person I've always tended to be very quiet. Used to be *really* shy for a long time. Not quite so much now (HS and college developed a rebellious "fuck this shit"/"just don't give a rat's ass" ballsy streak in me), but I still tend toward the quiet and socially-awkward side whenever I'm not around people I already know really well. I always chalked it up to the whole "nerd" thing: Inverse relationship in outgoingness between in-person vs semi-anonymous. (Although I'm probably closer to "otaku" nerd than "taped-glasses" nerd, FWIW). That, and on-the-fly comms is more difficult than "prep first then send" anyway.

Hi Can any one advise when we can expect the conference talks (and perhaps the slides as well) to available to download or via Utube ? I saw some of the streamed talks, but would love to view the rest. cheers Nick

It can already be viewed directly in all modern browsers even outside of YouTube. It is usable on platforms where flash is now dead (the number of which is increasing). Vast (vast! even on Windows) majority of the audience don't use IE. It doesn't have patent issues. YouTube is (very slowly) moving to .webm too, after all they were the main reason for it. I for one like videos that are don't all depend on a single platform and that I can download without resorting to hacks. And that I can view in my browser more seamlessly than what YouTube's flash interface can do. With this kind of thinking we'd still be using $FORMAT where $FORMAT is the first format that became the de-facto standard in a particular area.

One can use `paint` event to draw image on button and there is `GridPanel` (with usage example `grid.d`) so I don't understand why `GridView` is needed and what is its purpose. Also I don't know what is `DataView` for. DGui is really fantastic, it is easy to use and without a big overhead. What I experienced, developers coming from other frameworks might miss a horizontal/vertical layout. This would be much easier than using a grid for this purpose. Also some more examples could boost the popularity of DGui. Especially, how can I create create my own controls? What would be really nice for business developer would be a specific Stringgrid control (like delphi/lazarus has). Here an example http://i.stack.imgur.com/FJFiN.gif Do you accept pull requests if developers provide you new stuff for DGui? Kind regards André

It taking literally 5 minutes to download before it can be run also does not help. I guess. I've had vlc installed for so many years I never even consider that someone might not be able to play a given media file of any type. Media Player Classic (http://mpc-hc.org/) might be more to your tastes perhaps.
