Last November I attended the Øredev conference in Malmö and was given the opportunity to present Wicket to a (mostly) Scandinavian audience. Øredev is different from all other conferences I’ve attended because it has different tracks other than web and Java. There was a Cool languages track, a Domain Driven Design track, a .Net track, a Mobile track and of course a Java track.
I delivered a newer version of the introduction to Wicket presentation and the audience gave me a 4.22 rating (52×5 points, 33×3 and 0×1 points). Øredev will publish recorded videos of the sessions at a later time (I’m anxiously awaiting at least 2 presentations) so you can see my performance yourself. In the mean time you can take a look at the slides on slideshare (you’ll have to imagine my voice for now) or watch them inline below.
Hi Martijn, the slides look great! Seems like an easy-to-follow talk, nice job.

Hi,
the slides look great indeed.. do you think you could make them downloadable?
thanks,
Kristof

As a general rule I don’t make my presentations available for download: I’ve often seen presentations grabbing my stuff and using it without any credits whatsoever. I *do* mind people snagging my presentations because they take a long time and a lot of effort to create, and even cost money for the pictures. So short answer: no.

Quite honestly, I planned something similar: I wanted to use your presentation (without revoking any credits though) on manager meetings as a weapon against JSF :) It’s a bit more difficult to do the same when it’s only available only online.. but hey, generally I agree with your reasons, doing fine prez is a lot of work (been there, done that, got the t-shirt), so no problem :)
