Apart from running a little late, I think it went fairly well with some good participation from the audience. Things I’d do better the next time include:

  • preparing the slides more, particularly the server side ones for this audience;
  • giving the 2 minute introduction to OpenStreetMap, as there were people who didn’t know the basics about OSM in the crowd;
  • also doing it as a lab session, rather than rushed example demonstration of the editing before being thrown out of the lecture theatre.

I have made my slides from the talk available below.
