BDK Technical Talks

[thunderbiscuit]

This discussion is a migration of bitcoindevkit/bdk_wallet#24.

It will track ideas and scheduling for the BDK technical talks.

Outline

• Every 2 weeks
• 2 time slots (to keep it simple):
  • Friday @ 13:00 UTC
  • Thursday @ 22:00 UTC (Friday 9am Australia, Friday 7am Japan, Thursday 2pm Los Angeles)
• First presentation on April 4th.
• 30m to 2h
• Any BDK-related topic is fair game. Speaker's choice. Hopefully something they have specialized knowledge in (specific part of the codebase, CI, sample applications, architecture, blockchain clients, language bindings, documentation, etc.).
• The presentations typically happen over Jitsi, at meet.jit.si/BdkTechnicalTalks.

Notes

We prefer if the presenter is in charge of their own recording. This generally ensures a higher quality recording as well as better audio capture (as the alternative is usually for another person to simply record their screen/jitsi call). We've had great success with the OBS software.
