In Berlin, in rooms where 
we had a full view of the screen, we didn't do a second screen for 
slides only.  As mentioned, presenters can upload their slides to help 
with that.<br>
<br>
For places like the Marketplace demo theater where we had a smaller 
screen format, we added the view of both presenter and slide: 
<a href="https://www.openstack.org/videos/berlin-2018/how-to-avoid-vendor-lock-in-in-a-multi-cloud-world-with-zenko" class="m_5882106036788123680moz-txt-link-freetext" target="_blank">https://www.openstack.org/videos/berlin-2018/how-to-avoid-vendor-lock-in-in-a-multi-cloud-world-with-zenko</a><br>
<br>
We're looking at ways to improve both formats in Denver, so I'd say 
stand by.  If there is a presentation that you feel is too difficult to 
follow, we can reach out to those presenters and encourage them again to
 upload their slides.<br>

<br>So uh, I don't really want to be that guy, but I'm sure others have 
noticed the deal with the slides being different in the recordings from 
years past, in that you can't view them (hopefully people are uploading 
their slides). I'm mostly curious if there was a reason for that? Budget
 
cuts? Technical issues?
