I agree with Matthias that this work is important, so thank you for
persisting on it.

I didn't understand why you have a few "v19" patches and also a separate
series of "v19-only-part-3-" patches.  Is there duplication?  How do
people know which series comes first?

I think it would be better to get the PDF poster in a wiki page ... in
fact I would suggest to Andrey that he could start a wiki page with all
the PDFs presented at the conference.  Distributing a bunch of 2 MB pdf
via the mailing list doesn't sound too great an idea to me.  A few
people are having trouble with email quotas in cloud services, and the
list server gets bothered because of it.  Kindly don't do that anymore.

Regards
