<p>Wednesday, we give a presentation, with some friends, about the CouchDB
|
|
Database, to <a href="http://www.toulibre.org">the Toulouse local <span class="caps">LUG</span></a>. Thanks a
|
|
lot to all the presents for being there, it was a pleasure to talk about
|
|
this topic with you. Too bad the season is over now an I quit Toulouse
|
|
next year.</p>
|
|
<p>During our brainstorming about the topic, we used some paper, and we
|
|
wanted to make a presentation the simpler way. First thing that come to
|
|
my mind was using <a href="http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html">restructured
|
|
text</a>, so I’ve wrote a simple
|
|
file containing our different bullet points. In fact, there is quite
|
|
nothing to do then, to have a working presentation.</p>
|
|
<p>So far, I’ve used <a href="http://code.google.com/p/rst2pdf/">the rst2pdf
|
|
program</a>, and a simple template, to
|
|
generate output. It’s probably simple to have similar results using
|
|
latex + beamer, I’ll try this next time, but as I’m not familiar with
|
|
latex syntax, restructured text was a great option.</p>
|
|
<p>Here are <a href="http://files.lolnet.org/alexis/rst-presentations/couchdb/couchdb.pdf">the final <span class="caps">PDF</span>
|
|
output</a>,
