Download of Damian Perl 6 talk audio

While perusing Martin Pool's blog I came across a post that mentioned audio recordings from Ottawa Linux Symposium.

These included a Perl 6 talk by TheDamian.

Freecache links for the Ogg Speex format audio:

Something to listen to on the train tomorrow ;-)

This Q5 and Q8 thing, is this the answers to questions numbered five and eight as posed by some audience members? The rest of the talk was not recorded? Is "Q5" some sort of Speex codec version?	[reply]

Random guess; based on file size I think Q stands for Quality. Q5 would be a lower quality of the same talk compared to Q8.	[reply]

It's `s/Q(\d)/quality setting $1/;` — the content of both files is identical, they just differ in quality and therefore size. $ curl -sLI \ http://freecache.org/http://www.finux.org/audio/talk195-q5.spx \ http://freecache.org/http://www.finux.org/audio/talk195-q8.spx \ \| grep -i ^Content-Length Content-Length: 13036242 Content-Length: 20641946 Makeshifts last the longest.
