Very well organized and presented, interesting and full of useful information.
@Nikola, it looks like Kyle has posted them here: greenfly.org/talks/security...
Is it possible to have the slides posted here please? Thanks!
This was fascinating. The speaker is engaging and clearly well informed. This, BY FAR, was one of the top 3 sessions of OSCON09.
