[FOSS4G-Oceania] Collecting presentations from speakers

[Alex Leith]

We can use either Dropbox or Google Drive.

Maybe we should set up folders on each of the presentation laptops for each
session and collect them there...

I'm not going to make this one of my priorities, it's quite fiddly and I'm
not convinced it's impactful. We are recording presentations too, which
means we do have something there for posterity.
