Really quite impressive.<\/p>\n<p>Daniel Drake (dsd) presented the kernel and user-relations projects. I think the talk will help a lot of users to report better bugs in the future, and maybe even George will sort out his DMA access now.<\/p>\n<p>My talk was really rather scary for me and I was quite nervous (and unprepared!); I think it went fairly well though.
