We didn't go quite that far or PG EU - some of the decks were quite
complex Power Points, and one even included the talk itself as the
presenter couldn't attend in person. I simply wanted to make sure we

The PG UK ones were full length talks - the motivation there was
purely to get them on the wiki.
