Folks,

First off I would like to thank everyone who donated to our camera
drive. This month was the first session recorded using the new camera
setup and I think you will agree it is a BIG improvement. Also please
note we are still experimenting with the camera, processing software and
uploads to improve the experience, I expect this will take a couple more
sessions to pin down fully. If you happen to spot something you can see
us doing better please let us know.

To help support the improved camera we have also moved away from Vimeo
as our video host to YouTube. The free account on YouTube will allow us
to upload much higher quality video! A channel has been created on
YouTube to hold all of our videos, the channel name is “NWCPP”.

The slides and video from the NWCPP meeting this week have been posted.
They are available here:

Thanks,

Very nice talk! Thanks for making it available. :)

but they still missing a wireless microphone for the questioners :)

good talk - but i think you should be more clear about the target of 
your presentation, its started with simple components and ranges and 
then it mutated very fast into pipeline programming (design, paradigm, 
threading, multiple in/out pipes) questions - and except that everything 
can handled by throwing an exception, the error handling in complex 
pipeline programming "can" be much harder, very doable in D - but D(it 
libs) isn't currently in a state for doing complex pipeline programming 
out "of the box" (or designed for beeing so) it think that wasn't clear 
enough through the talk

Thank you for the slides.

Regarding slide 38, in D code like this I often forget what's the 
source and the destination:


foo.copy(bar);

A "copyTo" function name is more clear for me:

foo.copyTo(bar);


Regarding slide 41 "Reducers": the reduction with a "+" is a so 
common that I think Phobos should have a sum() function (as 
Haskell, Python and several other languages have).


Bye,

Whoops, thought I was replying to the message from Lloyd that I saw in my
inbox earlier today.

+1!  Also might I suggest making NWCPP accounts on Facebook/Twitter/Google+
from which you can push out these sorts of announcements?
The great thing about having the meeting announcements on those is that
people can really easily reshare them to all their followers, thereby
expanding the reach of the announcements.
