I have a couple of questions:
What is the format of the lesson, will video lectures be performed?
Is the information from these session being archived and accessible after the live event. If so, where would I find this?

Looking forward to it, although I have no clue what to develop, so hopefully the introduction speech will give me some ideas

Hey Jono,
I love the opportunistic idea and breaking down barriers that only get in the way. One question: With new Gnome-centric languages emerging do you think that eventually something like Genie might get more traction. With more and more low powered mobile devices a compiled language might have future. Maybe you and Stu could discuss Genie/Vala in a shot?

I have to remove the links to the Gnome Genie website and to the Genie wikipedia page or my comment wouldn’t appear. Your spam filter is evil

Any chance you could add the slides to the UbuntuOpportunisticDeveloperWeek wiki page?
In particular, the CouchDB session..
Thanks!
