Thanks for the feedback, Melanie. We did send that email out this go round, but I think there were two tracks that were excluded that weren't meant to be. We're expanding the functionality so that you can upload from the CFP/Speaker Profile w/o having to be prompted by us, so stand by for more features :) Cheers, Jimmy

Thanks for mentioning this. I've just sent the slides to speakersupport@, so hopefully they'll be linked soon to the session page.
General feedback regarding slide upload: last summit, we received an email from speakersupport@ letting us know the self-service slide upload system was ready and we were able to upload slides ourselves through openstack.org. I thought that was a nice system, FWIW. This time, I was expecting a similar message process for uploading slides and didn't realize we could have added slides already by now.
Cheers, -melanie

Here is a good example of what I'm talking about:

There is full view of the slides, but my eyes can't read most of that text. Compare that to YVR:

And it's night and day.
Jimmy McArthur <mailto:jimmy@openstack.org> December 3, 2018 at 2:46 PM 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.
For places like the Marketplace demo theater where we had a smaller screen format, we added the view of both presenter and slide: https://www.openstack.org/videos/berlin-2018/how-to-avoid-vendor-lock-in-in-...
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.

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?
