Hi Luca, my comments are inline. It sounds like you need to get in touch with the authors of these plugins and see if you can get some enhancements made (or submit some pull requests with enhancements yourself.) As far as your presentation goes, I would just try to figure out what is and is not ready to be shown. It seems like you have identified a number of things that might cause problems during your talk, so you might want to decide if you feel comfortable presenting them or not. If you think you can improve and solve these issues before your presentation, that is another option :) It's up to you. There is no good or bad path for a presentation; there is only what you feel will be good or not, and what you want to show people! Try the Errai plugin again BTW. I just merged a long-standing pull request that incremented a bunch of versions and fixed a few things. See below...

You could always show some other features of forge (like scaffolding, REST, or some of the plugins from the central repository :) Cheers! ~Lincoln On Wed, Oct 17, 2012 at 6:18 AM, Luca Masini < luca.masini.mailing.list(a)gmail.com&gt; wrote: > Thank you Lincoln, I will try your enhancement to the plugin and after > the presentation I'll contact the developers, may be I'll open some issue. > > As far as now I decided to show forge that create the project, that > introduce the errai facet and the errai-cdi example, but then I'll stop > there will live example and I'll show an old style presentation with screen > shot and code embedded. > > I hope this will not be too annoying to the audience (as far as now we > have 150 developers signed for the Dev Fest). > > Ciao. > L. > > 2012/10/16 Lincoln Baxter, III <lincolnbaxter(a)gmail.com&gt; > > Hi Luca, my comments are inline. >> >> It sounds like you need to get in touch with the authors of these >> plugins and see if you can get some enhancements made (or submit some pull >> requests with enhancements yourself.) >> >> As far as your presentation goes, I would just try to figure out what is >> and is not ready to be shown.
