Re: [Exist-open] Presenting eXist at RJUG/RIT

[Dan M. <dan...@gm...>]

Casey,

Great to hear you are presenting on eXist!

I have many PPT slides that you can use but most of them are used for the
classes and may be too detailed.  But I am happy to help out creating new
versions for your topics.

We should also be able reuse some of the material that Wolfgang has done in
his papers and presentations since they really cover the internals very
well.  We should check that we can have permissions to use them also.

If I assume you have about 1.5 hours for a typical user group we could help
you build a slide deck that has the right slides for this presentation.
Around 60 slides?

- Dan

I will go through my slides and try to send you what I have.
