Re: [activities] Call for speakers!

I was hoping not to feature again quite so soon - we have so many
talented folk in Sydney, and heck, many of them work in the building
we're going to be at tonight.

/me looks meaningfully at a few people.

I hear some even have LCA talks they should be practicing :)

However, if you'd like, I have a short - 30 minutish - talk on the bzr
2.0 compression algorithm, which myself and John Arbash Meinel presented
@ a company meeting earlier this year: "Groupcompress, bzr's new
clothes". Its all written, I just need to tweak the slides a little. I
doubt I'll have time to update measurements etc, but I wouldn't expect
significant changes - this part of 2.0 was much finished a while back.

Groupcompress is delta compression algorithm we created for bzr, its
single threaded, with a bounded O(changes) algorithm to extract a single
text, single-copy extraction of multiple texts... well if you're
interested.. accept this proposal and come to the talk.
