Description

All of the PDFs from this years OVScon were recently added to the Git repo. However, this makes cloning the repo extremely slow as all of these PDFs must be checked out. Could we upload these to a proper, SaaS presentation hosting site instead? I use SpeakerDeck personally, as it lets you use your GitHub credentials, but I'm not sure if they support organizations (you don't want to be sharing credentials for a single account). I've emailed to ask them, but in the interim SlideShare do appear to offer such a feature.

Research direction

Review the PDFs added in commit b654854813 and compare SpeakerDeck and SlideShare for organization support. Decide on the hosting approach, move the OVScon presentations out of the Git repository, and verify that the presentations remain accessible while cloning no longer downloads them.
