Sorry that this thread is a bit late. Things have been quite packed for me lately and this kinda just slipped through the cracks, so a super thanks to @mattbenic for some gentle reminding that I needed to do this.
I've been trying to get a talk for this month, but no luck on that. Seems like people a slightly more keen on next month.
So if you have a last minute talk or demo you want to give, please drop a post in the thread, or send me a PM (and hopefully emails from the website don't end up in my spam again >_<)
Worst case I'll do high level talk on Actions and Callbacks, and how they're used in a networked game if people don't mind something kinda programmery.
