And if anyone wishes to see this talk

http://mirror.linux.org.au/lug/clug/psig/2010-08-12_tridge_psig_Waf_Build_System.ogv

The file is 218 MB, 2 hours of talk. Tridge went on tangents [0] and jumped
around a lot. Also he kept talking about it as he walked out the door toward
the restaurant, I did not keep filming at the restaurant (that may have been
creepy).

Hope people enjoy.

Now I know where the camera is, and due to the fact I will be at CLUG most
of the time for the next few months I think I may make an effort to record
them more often.

	See You

[0] the best tangent related sig of course is
"Never go off on tangents, which are lines that intersect a curve at only
one point and were discovered by Euclid, who lived in the 6th century, which
was an era dominated by the Goths, who lived in what we now know as Poland.
