Mike,
If you want to show some applications written in D, I can 
offer the Eilmer compressible flow solver as an example.  This 
year it will be ten years that we have been using D to build 
our flow solver.  It has been a good ride.


There is a blog entry from a couple of years back 
https://dlang.org/blog/2022/02/02/a-gas-dynamics-toolkit-in-d/ 
which is still a good starting point on why we like to write 
our code in D.


You can also browse our main web site 
https://gdtk.uqcloud.net/ to get an idea of the current state 
of the project.


Feel free to send an email if you want any flashy pictures for 
your presentation. The fellows here have been doing some 
impressive calculations in recent times.


Regards,
Peter Jacobs


Peter, I'd be happy to show Filmer -- if you have any flashy 
pictures please send them my way at mikes...@northeastern.edu. 
Otherwise I'll grab what I can from the website with a citation 
:)


Will close this announcement out with the link which now includes 
the slides, and in the future the video (and there should be a 
video on YouTube soon as well).

If the talk is related to FOSS, probably it will be worth to 
mention:
* GDC project. That D is a part of GCC family and can be easily 
used from this toolchain.
* work of Brian Callahan about porting D to OpenBSD system. So 
D should work on FreeBSD and OpenBSD as well (not sure about 
NetBSD).
* one more time mention that D has open source license for very 
long time (because sometimes I still can see in web - people 
mentioning closed source old issues).


Excellent highlights -- thank you!

Hi Mike are you sure the link is right, or you're on that list?


The main track in that link is still empty. Here is a link for 
just the main track, also empty: 
https://fosdem.org/2024/schedule/track/main/


You'd think the main track has been finalized by now (it is 
only 18 days until the start of the conference) and since all 
other rooms have plenty of entries already, this list being 
empty seems like a malfunction to me.

Indeed might be a malfunction -- either way I'll post the final 
slides/talk here when completed 👍

It looks like they have not yet pushed the update for the main 
track, but it should be there soon I hope.


In the past the conference has live streamed or otherwise put 
recordings shortly after the talk on the schedule, and on YouTube.
