Eons ago somebody on the AVS forums made a huge collection of commercials, slides, trivia and some other stuff for back when this was HTE or. Anywho, he had put everything on a DVD and I paid for him to burn and ship me one. There's a whole lot on it. This was back when people still had DVD drives and Kodi wasn't even Kodi yet. So it's not super high quality by today's standards. But there's some great stuff. I don't just want to wreckelessly upload stuff, so I'm asking is there anything I can't
Hello - okay - new teeth, that’s weird. So, where was I? Oh, that’s right... Barcelona!
Well, we did it. After a couple of years of pandemic-induced isolation, we managed to get most of the team together in early April for the first time in forever. We successfully brought people in from as far afield as western Canada and Australia, from Europe and from India, for a few days of brainstorming, hacking, direction-setting, updates and, yes, beer. Without straying into politics, we had notable absences, of course, from our Russian and Ukrainian team members. Stay safe, guys: you were genuinely missed.
As a break from our normal day-by-day account, this year we're writing this as a retrospective of the whole conference, so you get the flavour of everything all in one go. Think of it as a badly-consumed tapas, then... so, off we go.

There were also things we can't really talk about - top secret plans, and bar bills, for example - but this gives a flavour of what we discussed. There's enough here to keep us all busy for many years yet, and that's before new stuff inevitably gets added.
In the meantime, please delight in a picture of your favourite open-source devs, relaxing in the sunshine after a hard day huddled around laptops and projector screens.
