When you go down, It cut in the middle of David Simcha's 
presentation. I'm using Firefox. On different computer, it cut at 
different location, but I can never see the whole list.

It works for me on Opera and Firefox (Linux 64-bit 1600x1200). Well,
assuming Adam Wilson is the last person listed on that page, that is.

OK, did some investigation on this.

It seems that some script explicitely set the height of element 
<div class="page_left equal hyphenate"> . This script sometime 
get the height wrong.

Heh... I was browsing with JS turned off, that's why I didn't see that
problem. I'm pretty sure it will show up if I turned on JS, 'cos I
configured my browser with very large minimum font sizes to make
websites with bad CSS (i.e. microscopic fonts) tolerable -- not that
dconf.org does that, but the font size override tends to throw off size
calculations of a lot of JS out there.

Minor issues on "speakers" page:

I'll replace them with '?') in link "http://?forum.?dlang.?org"

Fixed, thanks.

This seems to be caused by monospace (there's no whitespace there that I 
could find).


 2. Vladimir Panteleev: unknown characters (displayed as squares, I'll
 replace them with '?') in link "http://?forum.?dlang.?org"


That's odd, does anyone else see those?

That's what I see in sources of the page (again, replaced square
with '?'):
---
<a href="http://dlang.org/phobos/std_regex.html">
<tt>std.?regex</tt>ev
</a>

Firefox sources:
<a style="-moz-hyphens: auto;"

style="-moz-hyphens: auto;">std.regex</tt></a>

Chromium:
<a




 2. Vladimir Panteleev: unknown characters (displayed as 
 squares, I'll
 replace them with '?') in link "http://?forum.?dlang.?org"




Opera:
<a href="http://forum.dlang.org">http://?forum.?dlang.?org</a>

FF:
<a style="-moz-hyphens: auto;"
href="http://forum.dlang.org">http://forum.dlang.org</a>.

Ch:

Chromium and Firefox renders everything as expected, so it should
be Opera-specific (bug ?).

So another important question. Do you know which talk will be 
recorded or not ? I have been asked the question quite a lot.

To the best of my recollection only Andrew Edwards asked for his talk to 
now be recorded.

I am pretty sure that you meant "... to _not_ be recorded." :)

http://dconf.org/talks/gertzfield.html

Gertzfield's bio is cut off. I see first line and only small 
upper part of second line.

Debian 6.x Iceweaseal 17.0 (backport). No unusual settings in my 
browser and it usually works fine everywhere else.

Very interesting talks. The presentation looks great and very 
professional. Nice job!
