Hi Michael -

Thanks for the kind words about my talk. I found both of your talks to be outstanding. Your Multithreaded C++0x talk left the audience stunned and wholly intrigued. =)

I strongly agree with you regarding having a special parallel programming track for future BoostCons. I will convey your point to the BoostCon program committee and hopefully we'll see something along those lines for BoostCon'10.

I hope you plan to give more talks at BoostCon'10. I especially think more people need to hear your Multithreaded C++0x talk. I believe the C++ community needs to more fully understand the intricacies of concurrent instruction interleavings and the complexities of hardware memory models as you have outlined in your talk. IMO, 90-minutes wasn't enough time, I think you need two 90-minutes sessions for your Multithreaded talk. And, if you gave two 90-minute multithreaded talks at BoostCon'10, I think you'll find that both talks will be overfull, just like both of your talks were this year. =)

Congratulations on your new family addition!

Justin Gottschlich
