I've now managed (I think) to upload my slides successfully, I hope that
this provides a bit of a framework...

I have also managed to download John and Priscilla's slides now, and will
send more detailed comments this evening.

First impressions ...
- this seems like a good start, I like the content so far.
- for the final version a 5 minute talk will usually have  5 (if text only)
- 15 slides (if heavily image based)...
- its easier for people to remember a lot of concepts (as is common in the
lightning talk approach) if there are some images...
- Compression slides: a lot of information here, this could easily be
broken into multiple slides with one concept each, accompanied by a
formula/image/or useful reference... that would probably cover 5 min+
- Media slides:
   -  the reality-check on industry practice seems useful, grounding, and
attention grabbing;
   -  I think one of our goals for this section was to talk about
media characteristics generally, e.g. mean-time-between-failure rates on
disks; shelf-life of tape/cd; media characteristics associated with gradual
corruption (a few bits) vs. catastrophic failure of the entire
tape/platter/disk

best,

Micah
