slides?
Hi Dev and User,
Wondering if people would find a benefit from collecting slides from
Meetups/Talks?
Seems that this could be appropriate on the website, for instance. Not
sure whether this has been asked previously, so bringing it to the group.
Cheers,
Austin

It would be great to have an index for those materials.
Maybe as cwiki page, which is easy to edit and watch. Similar to:

We have a section for this:
https://beam.apache.org/community/presentation-materials/.
Right now "Presentation Materials" has the appearance of carefully curated
stuff from a core team. That was probably true three years ago, but now it
is simply out of date. A lot of the material is so old that it is actually
incorrect. It would be good to invite more people to maintain this.
Perhaps:
- "Presentation Materials" -> "Presentations"
- Replace the Google Drive link with readable HTML page with a (possibly
large) archive of events and slides, with licenses so new folks can
copy/paste/modify to kick start their talk
This has the added benefit that there is a clear date and author on each
piece, so you know how old the material is and can put it in context. And
link to video of people presenting with the deck, too. That can be better
than long written speaker notes.

We have a section for this:
https://beam.apache.org/community/presentation-materials/.
Right now "Presentation Materials" has the appearance of carefully curated
stuff from a core team. That was probably true three years ago, but now it
is simply out of date. A lot of the material is so old that it is actually
incorrect. It would be good to invite more people to maintain this.
Perhaps:
- "Presentation Materials" -> "Presentations"
- Replace the Google Drive link with readable HTML page with a (possibly
large) archive of events and slides, with licenses so new folks can
copy/paste/modify to kick start their talk
This has the added benefit that there is a clear date and author on each
piece, so you know how old the material is and can put it in context. And
link to video of people presenting with the deck, too. That can be better
than long written speaker notes.
