Hi,
I've posted drafts of my talks for SVG Open 2012 (now known as "The Graphical Web") to my website. Comments welcomed. I give both talks Tuesday morning in Zurich.
The talks use JessyInk and require you to hit Page Down twice to get to the first slide. Firefox messes up some figures while Chrome doesn't do indenting text spaces well.
Inkscape Update:

Hi,
I just used the right arrow once and it went to the next slide in Firefox 15. Great presentations imho! People should really check them out.
Cheers, Josh

Looking good!

About tensor product meshes vs. "auto-smooth": tensor product meshes /can/ exactly reproduce the "completely smooth" gradient you show (the one from Israel Eisenberg). The earlier examples I gave simply only enforced matching derivatives across edges, if you also enforce matching derivatives across the center point, then you get the attached image, which seems to be indistinguishable from the one that was found by Israel Eisenberg.
The advantage of doing it the "tensor product way", is that you can simply support the same kind of interface that we currently have for choosing a node type: corner, smooth, symmetric, and possibly even auto-smooth (only in 2D).
Of course there is still the matter of how to deal with "out-of-range" colour values (on handles). But I think this need not be insurmountable (specifying out-of-range colours need not be a problem per se, and for display one could simply clip for example).
Any way, have a nice time, and lot's of luck with your presentations!

The presentations look very nice. Here are my comments:
You made a spelling mistake in my name :) It's Krzysztof not Kryzystof.
Regarding the wishlist: 1. Filter primitive subregions are rather useful for feFlood and feImage and obviously necessary for feTile, they're just not implemented yet. This is down to the fact that the person who originally wrote the filters did not really understand the canvas object hierarchy or know C++ very well (e.g. he reimplemented an auto-growing vector!) - they are somewhat crudely bolted on. For example, they do not appropriately react to the 'update' callback. Poor handling of filterRes is also a consequence of this. 2. enable-background is strangely defined but implementable. Some rationale on why it is defined this way would be useful. 3. If we want feDropShadow then why remove feMerge? On the other hand, combining feComposite and feBlend is a good idea, I don't see why they are separated. Preferably, feComposite should be expanded with the operations of feBlend and feBlend should left as a deprecated element. 4. Warped text is too specific. This is achievable by combining normal text with envelope deformation. There's actually an envelope deformation LPE already present in Inkscape. If it doesn't work with text, it's a technical problem in Inkscape. 5. Hatched fills are OK, but I'm not sure how this would be implemented.
I think you should also mention that at the moment 0.49 is not usable for images which contain bitmaps, as Cairo still does not implement bitmap downscaling.
Good luck :)

Oops.
Regarding the wishlist:

feImage and obviously necessary for feTile, they're just not implemented yet. This is down to the fact that the person who originally wrote the filters did not really understand the canvas object hierarchy or know C++ very well (e.g. he reimplemented an auto-growing vector!) - they are somewhat crudely bolted on. For example, they do not appropriately react to the 'update' callback. Poor handling of filterRes is also a consequence of this.
Reminds me that feImage needs to get fixed (coordinates are used wrongly). I had fixed it right before the big Cairo merge. I'll have a look after the SVG working group meeting.

rationale on why it is defined this way would be useful.

text with envelope deformation. There's actually an envelope deformation LPE already present in Inkscape. If it doesn't work with text, it's a technical problem in Inkscape.
Yes, if you convert it to paths. This is about keeping the text as text. It comes out of a question raised about how text should be deformed when on a path.
- Hatched fills are OK, but I'm not sure how this would be implemented.

Will do so. (Any workaround planned?)
Good luck :)

There's nothing preventing Inkscape (or SVG vector effects, for that matter) from treating text as a path when necessary, while still keeping it editable as text. In fact, at the moment we convert everything to paths.

No workaround at the moment, unfortunately. This is a problem that must be fixed in Cairo. I investigated how it could be fixed without modifying Cairo, but all the ideas I've come up with turned out to be dead ends.
