Will materials like slides/slide notes be available afterwards? I can't
make it but the talks sound *very* interesting :-)

Depends on the speakers.

I'm just doing a rant and delivering more great software for you clowns
to ignore. Audio recording and one CVS URL will suffice for me. I'll
bring a recorder. Hmm, and a still camera

The flock comes before the shepherd.

Actually, just a very relaxed few days to ground-up a rough integration
of Cells with AllegroGraph, and it is a hoot to see working. A port to
Redland likely will be left as an exercise for folks too daft to pony up
the bucks for commercial lisps. I will put any time between now and then
into rdf-closures (right now rules cannot capture) and fully implement
more of the integrity specified in the Cells manifesto.

I was told in private email that this response might sound a bit
harsh. It wasn't meant that way...

We usually ask the speakers to provide slides we can publish or link
to after the meeting. Whether they actually /do/ that is up to them,
of course. If you look at the ECLM websites for 2005 and 2006, you'll
note that (with a lot of nagging) we eventually succeeded to get the
slides for eight out of nine talks in 2005. In 2006, we obviously
weren't quite that successful (or persistent).

Another option would be audio or video recordings of the talks.
Again, you'll first need to ask the speakers if they're OK with that.
But then you'll also need someone who actually /does/ the recording
and publishes it afterwards. If you want an acceptable quality this
is not as easy as you might think. We had people who talked about
doing this in the last years, but in the end it never happened.

Edi.
