I gave a talk a couple weeks ago and have secured the video for distribution.

Quote:

ToaruOS has been my side project since I was in college. Featured on Hacker News, Phoronix, and a GitHub showcase, the project has come a long way over the past five years. We'll talk about the original design goals, take a deep look into some of the core concepts of the OS with a hands-on answer to a popular technical interview question, see some demos, and also talk about where the project is going in the future and what we hope to accomplish in the next five years.

The talk is presented live in the OS and includes several demos.

Nice, I'm in middle of it now - so far I'm enjoying every minute of it.

Thanks for posting here, it would have been a week or so before I went to youtube and saw your video

(Been a subscriber since I found your channel, been a fan longer)

Keep up the great work!

Thank you for the presentation. And the project!

@klange, in the beginning of the video, you mention that your previous talk was centered on the OS dev community. Is that video available anywhere? I'd be interested in seeing that one as well.

If not, can you give us a quick overview of what you discussed?

Apart of writing down microkernel devs as overly academic, nice talk

As much as I can obtain the video for it, I don't want to release my previous talk - it wasn't very good. The focus of that talk was resources available to hobbyists and an overview of several projects that were actively developed at the time.

Yeah, that was like calling people who write monolithic kernels lazy and reckless for exactly the same reasons.

But a really great talk! Loved watching it. Wonderful view in the world after the kernel. You and the rest have done a great job.

If you can get your hands on the video, I'd still be interested in seeing it. I'm just curious how this site and other similar sites are affecting other people's projects and how you presented it to others and how it was received. I don't really care about the quality.

If you don't want to put it on YouTube, then maybe just upload it to Dropbox and post a link to it on here. Up to you though.

Also, the video cuts off right as you are about to go off on X11. Can you post what you said after the end of the video??
