That was fun to watch
. A lot of hiccups with the slide changes but overall a very cool presentation.

Jean-Claude, I’ve added the original link to the main post.
Pedro, it was a blast, and luckily towards the end where the timing for ending was really important, there were no slide change timing issues.

“It’s the data that make science happen”.
Amen! That was great, Deepak. It really gives me a lift to see Open Science being promoted by enthusiasts like yourself.
