+\begin{frame}{Brought to you by the Deuxfleurs association}
+
+\begin{block}{\textbf{deuxfleurs.fr} -- a libre hosting association with a vision}
+``Shifting the current structure of the Internet from a world of a few very large service providers, to a world where services are hosted by a variety of smaller organisations.''	
+\end{block}
+
+
+\begin{block}{Our goals}
+\begin{itemize}
+	\item To propose performant \& reliable libre services for the masses
+	\item To host and administer our infrastructure ourselves
+	\item To allow members to contribute storage/compute nodes
+	\item Resilience: for availability \& the sysadmins' sleep 
+	\item Conceptual simplicity to ease onboarding \& demistify hosting
+\end{itemize}
+\end{block}
+
+
+\end{frame}

+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+\begin{frame}{The lacking state of the practice}
+
+\begin{block}{Object storage fitted our needs}
+\begin{itemize}
+	\item Distributed by design
+	\item Objects are replicated
+	\item Conceptually simple
+\end{itemize}
+\end{block}
+\vfill 
+
+\begin{block}{Existing object stores did not}
+	\begin{itemize}
+		\item Too specific / complex 
+		\item Resource hungry 
+		\item Hidden constraints 
+	\end{itemize}
+\end{block}
+\vfill
+
+We developed Garage, an object store with minimal functionality.
+
+It works, and serves our static sites and media.

+\begin{itemize}
+	\item Distributed data store
+	\item Based on DynamoDB object store (P2P!)
+	\item Modular data types/protocols with CRDTs:
+	\begin{itemize}
+		\item Done: objects (media, static sites, backups...) via S3 API 
+		\item To do: e-mails via IMAP protocol, and more

+	\textbf{Pros:}
+	\begin{itemize}
+		\item Compiled and fast
+		\item Features prevent usual mistakes:
+
+		strongly typed, immutable by default, ownership instead of GC...
+
+		\item Best of several paradigms:
+
+		imperative, OO, functional
+
+		\item Good libraries for network programmings:
+
+		serialization, http, async/await...
+	\end{itemize}
+\column[t]{.4\columnwidth}
+	\textbf{Cons}:
+	\begin{itemize}
+		\item Steep learning curve
+		\item Long compilation times
+		\item Compiler rage
