[EuroPython] slides

[Russel Winder]

John,

From the outset let me say I am guilty, I have failed to be sufficiently
organized to have my presentation materials finished by yesterday as
originally planned.

I wonder if the Wiki is actually a better resource for these than a DVD.

Given the inability of presenters (such as myself) to complete their
slides before they travel to the conference, isn't having them on a
website for people to download actually better than the hassle of
writing a DVD.  I know I haven't put any conference disc in a machine
for years.

ACCU has I believe stopped doing conference discs for exactly this
timing reason.

I'll try and finish mine tonight and upload but . . .  (reasons and
