NIWeek Discussion Forum

[pjlaskey]

I apologize if this question was answered in the past or if it is common knowledge but I have not been able to locate the answer.  I last attended NI Week in 2000.  Back then we used to receive a CD with the presenters’ slides and demo files along with a few other goodies.  It seems that a decision was made not to distribute hard copies of the slides, which is great, but it would be helpful to be able to look back and review some of the bullets.  What is the current policy with regard to distribution of these materials on CD or DVD?

I would also enjoy larger, higher quality copies of the Keynote presentation videos.  I found them to be very inspirational this year.

Thank you,

As far as I know, the videos are available only on the keynote videos page.  We're still in the process of gathering slides from different presentations; we're making them available in PDF form at http://www.ni.com/niweek/summits.htm

Hope this helps,

Matt

It would be VERY helpful to have example source code in addition to the slide. At least where possible. Who can I contact to make this request?

[mattjacobs]

Good question -- I'm not sure of the answer.  The presenters were a mix of NI employees and non-employees; I'm not aware of any place where everyone put example code used in their presentations.  You could try Developer Zone, or if there's example code for a specific presentation that interests you, I could try to track down the presenter for you.

I guess whomever owns putting presentations on the web could take a request to put source up as well, where available, should be available for most sessions.

This link includes all example code (NI and community).  I would also encourage people to put their code in the community at ni.com/community to allow for more advanced functionality.  All NIWeek presentations are available on our website.

Would you please encourage NI presenters to post relevant code in a way that makes it easy to find by searching for the name or ID of the presentation.

Would you please encourage the person who owns the page 'http://www.ni.com/niweek/summits.htm' to add links to the posted presentation code.

On pages like 'http://www.ni.com/niweek/presentations_software.htm' add a column for links to code.

It would be very good.

Thanks.
