Actually, this was a presentation I attended last year. So the slides already exist. You can also grab their old paper at http://people.freebsd.org/~brooks/papers/bsdcon2003/ but this is a bit out-dated. My advice would be to try and contact Mr. Brooks Davis directly. If you can't find him, try and send an email to the organisers of BSDCan from http://www.bsdcan.org/2008/contact.php. I believe you should talk to Dan Langille on the BSDCan commitee http://www.bsdcan.org/2008/committee.php Good luck and have fun!
