IMO this system is not great, because it's not possible to find slides
for talks regardless of what conference they were presented in.  The
wiki at least gives a central place to search for.  I've spent a lot of
time tagging pages in the wiki to make these easy to search for, but it
seems that at some point everybody else just gave up on that and stopped
uploading even links to the wiki.  I'm glad that Gurjeet decided to
create a page for this conference.

Talk slides and videos are a *huge* advocacy and teaching resource, and
we're wasting it.
