Stepping back a bit ... I suppose the question I would ask about this page is, what is the *goal* of the page? If the goal is "give people a place to show off their conference appearances" then that's what it's doing. If, on the other hand, the goal is to provide recommended sample presentations for folks to 1) learn from and 2) use as starter content for their own presentations on these topics, then I think it fails pretty spectacularly. Having 73 variations of "The Apache Way" is confusing and frustrating. Meanwhile, our attempts to collaborate on one canonical version have resulted in https://training.apache.org/presentations/comdev/apache-intro/ which I think is what we *should* be promoting. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@community.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@community.apache.org
