    Is there a video of this talk? I would have loved to have been there!

    I did not shoot this session.

    I did not shoot this session. It's possible someone else did. I did shoot this session: http://groups.drupal.org/node/77913 - I had tape issues with this particular session so some of it was not recorded. I will post what I have though.

    I am currently working on all the video that I shot. The intent is to release ASAP. If you want to be notified when the videos are online send an email requesting a link.

    Hey, I gave this preso, and I don't believe anyone videotaped it

    I'd post the slide deck, but it really is just mostly talking points. I can see about making a screencast of the demo sections of the preso. (I am a bit burnt out ATM because DebConf10 just came to town).
