[EuroPython] Volunteering to take care of the talks material

[Nicolas Chauvat]

Folks,

I'm done with the Science Track. I'm done with helping out Paul with the
LTalks. I'm almost done preparing my own talks. I need something else to
do for EuroPython :-)

Since during yesterday's discussion more people agreed with the "publish
early" opinion (something like 7 to 2) and since neither MAL, nor Denis,
nor Tom has time for this, I'd like to take care of it and make slides
available online again, then add a news item stating they are.

I offer to add to the page the following disclaimer:

In the true spirit of open source, you'll find here the slides that
speakers will be using for their talks. Please download them and read
them, then send your comments to the authors if you have any. We believe
that the true value of attending the conference lies in the opportunity to
exchange with other people and we believe publishing this material
beforehand will at the same time help us increase the quality of the
presentations and give a chance to the speakers to have the best possible
audience: one that already knows what they are talking about and can
engage in a discussion that will get right to the point and give maximum
benefit to everyone in a minimum amount of time.

and take on myself any burden related to the matter, which will be very
light compared to budget issues.

Any opposition around here ?
