Search engines are sometimes helpful. For the Embedded Linux Conference (ELC) and Embedded Linux Conference Europe (ELCE), there is an easy to scan table of presentations and their slides and videos for each year of the conference. It is a two step search, the top level is a link to each year of the conference: https://elinux.org/ELC_Presentations then following the link from there gets you to the table of presentations, for example ELCE 2018 is at: https://elinux.org/ELC_Europe_2018_Presentations An example of a more organized list of conference presentations for one subsystem is a reference to devicetree conference presentations at: https://elinux.org/Device_Tree_presentations_papers_articles Each presentation is listed twice, once by topic area(s) and once by date. -Frank > > - Ted > _______________________________________________ > Ksummit-discuss mailing list > Ksummit-discuss@lists.linuxfoundation.org > https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/ksummit-discuss >
