Hey Guys,
I'll be in Montreal on October 2nd (Wednesday) giving a tech talk about
ReactOS, for about 2 hours. I intend to go over everything from development
to infrastructure (translation, testing, etc).
Are there any materials and/or suggestions from previous talks available
anywhere? Any set of tools/games/apps you recommend I try out?

To give you some points that should outline our complex infrastructure:
* We're operating 3 servers in Sweden, 2 in Germany and 1 in Poland
One more for Sweden is being configured right now. If desired, I can
outline some hardware details.
* Services we use for ReactOS development:
- Atlassian Crucible with FishEye & JIRA
- BuildBot
- cppcheck
- Doxygen
- Several VMs just for ROS Regression Testing (KVM, VirtualBox,
VMware ESXi, VMware Player)
- Subversion & ViewVC
* On top of this, we're also operating an advanced Web & Mail
infrastructure with components such as:
- Drupal
- IServ
- MediaWiki
- Nginx
- phpBB
* Some of our online services are developed in-house such as:
- http://old.reactos.org/compat/ (still not moved to the new site..)
- https://reactos.org/getbuilds
- The whole regression testing system consisting of:
* Wine tests
* ROS API tests
* AutoHotKey application tests
* rosautotest for running all of them in a row, keeping a
journal and outputting a log
* sysreg for controlling a VM, installing ROS on it and
capturing the serial debug log
* https://reactos.org/testman for working through the log of
sysreg, adding testing information to our databases and easily browsing
through that information
* Don't forget to take a screenshot of http://build.reactos.org/waterfall :)
While we're talking about this, you should also tell your people about
the two non-profit organizations we have established in Russia and Germany.
The German one handles all donations and will be ready to provide
students with scholarships for working on ROS (by around the end of the
year). It also regularly consumes much time of 3 ReactOS members
(Matthias, Daniel and me, who are part of the Board :))

@Aleksey: If you allow I have two small suggestions regarding your style
of lecture based on the linked video (I don't know whether this already
changed since the time of recording though):
- try to look towards your students
- please keep your hands out of your pockets
As a student I definitely prefer presenters that respect these two
points (and yes, I'm aware that this can be hard)

Thanks Sven, I improved after watching the first recorded video of the

Next time to practice would be 2014 spring when I am reading the same
course to the new 2nd year students.

Yes, watching a recording of oneself can be really helpful. And its nice to
see that you take interest in your style of lecture. I know quite a few
lecturers that don't give a thing about it :(
