digitalmars.D - My next D related talk

Somewhere down the bottom of that list of speakers is my name. 
I'll be there talking about Binderoo, and will be announcing the 
first stable release at that conference.

The speaker list is an all-star line up of game development. Just 
a few examples:

Tim Cain (Fallout)
SUDA51 (Grasshopper games)
CliffyB (Epic, Gears of War)
Chris Taylor (Total Annihilation)
Chet Faliszek (Team Fortress 2, Portal 2)
Koji Igarashi (Castlevania: Symphony of the Night)
Chris Avellonne (Planescape: Torment)

Just being on the same list as those names is intimidating.

But of note, Jonathan Blow will also be speaking there. I expect 
he'll be doing a Jai thing. I also expect I'll have to answer 
some of his questions during my talk. Which will get *very* 
interesting indeed.

I forgot to mention. I may not submit a DConf talk this year as a 
result. But I do want to attend, and I will see if one of the 
other Remedy guys wants to give a talk (he's been working on an 
ARC garbage collector for our usage that will get pushed out to 
Binderoo at some point).

Wow, that's a star-studded list. Good luck with your talk.

I won't be at GDC. A few other people from Remedy will be.

Pretty dazz!

My experience in being in an illustrious lineup is I get motivated to do my 
best, and it turns out to be great fun.

It would be fun to talk to Jonathan. You're in for a good time!
