As promised, reminder: The followup interview on Channel 9 has been scheduled, and will be shot on Thursday, June 2. You have until midnight June 1 (North American Pacific time) to post new questions, and to vote others’ questions up/down.

If you haven’t been back to the call for questions page for a few days, please take a minute now to go back and vote for/against the questions that have been submitted in the comments. Your votes matter to help us know which questions are of most interest to the most people, and we’ll take as many of the highest-rated ones that we can.

Lloyd Moore of NWCPP did record some video and post slides of my C++ lambdas talk two days ago. The video and slides (PDF) are now online. You can see Lloyd’s friendly smile in the foreground of the final frame.

The room lighting and layout weren’t great for video recording, but the audio is quite clear and you can refer to the PDF to see everything on the slides in detail.

If your name is Scott Meyers, skip to 41:50. :)

The last Channel 9 video interview seems to have been well-received, and some people suggested Charles should have asked about additional topics.

So here’s my idea: Let’s do another C9 interview, this time with your questions — hard or soft, big or small, just not too bizarre or personal please. :)

Here’s how I’ll try to take them:

• Post your question(s) below as a reply to this post. Post as many questions as you like, but please make each one a separate reply for better clarity.
• Return often to vote your and others’ questions up or down. That way I know what’s of interest to lots of people, rather than spending 10% of the interview answering something of interest to only one person.
• Charles will pepper me with the top-rated questions and we’ll get through as many as we can in some reasonable time (30 minutes? though once we get going we tend to be hard to stop). We’ll try to do it somewhere with a whiteboard as I expect that’ll be handy.

So, now it’s all yours… reply below as often as you like, and vote the questions up/down early and often.

Update, June 7: The followup interview is now live. Thanks for all your questions, and we took as many of the most popular ones as we could!

For those of you who are local to the greater Seattle area, tomorrow night at 6:30pm in Redmond I’ll be giving a reprise of one my talks that premiered last fall at C++ and Beyond 2010.

The talk I’ll be giving is Lambdas, Lambdas Everywhere about all the wild and wonderful uses of C++0x lambda functions. It’s hosted by the Northwest C++ Users Group (NWCPP) which meets at Microsoft Building 41 in Redmond, WA.

Here are the coordinates, with a map link:
