@Halfak please let me know if you want to use the 30-min in the August showcase. If you don't use it, I'll reach out to Amy (http://people.csail.mit.edu/axz/) who we want to host one of these months. :)
Hey @aripstra, assigned this to you. Let's touch base on the logistics some time this week.
I'm not sure yet I'll be present in the office on that day. Otherwise I'm happy to do it, and also happy to yield to @Tbayer.
I just realized that since both speakers won't be in the office either, it probably won't be a problem if I'm calling in to relay questions from IRC. If that's fine with you, @DarTar , I'm happy to do it.
Giovanni will be presenting from the office, but I think a remote IRC host would work just fine. Thanks @gpaumier
