That would be a fun, somewhat "plot-twist". 'Scott: That's the last thing D needs: Me! 8-D'

You win DConf!
 It was an excellent talk.
Indeed. *nods*. It was the first Scott Meyers talk I'd seen. I knew he was a highly-regarded speaker, and now I totally see why.

I'm uncertain if the "last thing D needs" is more like "A kick in the crotch is the last thing you need" or is it more like "the last thing this sundae needs is a cherry on top" -Steve

Note that the main site doesn't have links to the 2014 schedule (it only has a top link to dconf 2013). You have to manually move to http://dconf.org/2014/ which is the link that's missing.

In the top menu bar, I see: Schedule Registration Speakers Venue Contact Us DConf 2013 Perhaps refresh your browser cache?

Yeah I had to CTRL+F5 instead of F5, thanks. (I really don't understand why browsers have to be stupid-by-default instead of useful-by-default).

Browsers behave as requested by web sites, no need to blame them for that. Caching is controlled by HTTP headers.

Not sure I understand. When you navigate to http://dconf.org you should be forwarded to http://dconf.org/2014/index.html. Then clicking "Schedule" on the menu takes you to the schedule. Andrei

As Walter said it was just a caching issue, it works as intended. :)
