Hi Andres,
Your presentation is interesting, and I think your slides are too, although they are in Portugese. I assume you know that we only accept presentations (and slides) in English. Sorry about that, but we are a diverse crowd and have to stick to the lingua franca.

Hi Torkild, thanks a lot for the invite, this is super exciting!
Yeap, The slides are in PT because I presented this at QCon in São Paulo. I'll translate them to English and the presentation would be in English.
I'll talk to my manager this week and confirm that I have the budget to get there and that doesn't conflict with a team meetup.
Something you should probably know is that I recently left Red Hat, I am now working at Auth0, is that ok?

Everything done with the trip, I am sorting out my employer status. Already sent all the paperwork but it's taking more time than it should
