+1 to let's not do presentations at the end of the hackathon. If we want to thank sponsors, there could be a no-audio presentation that runs in a loop for a couple of hours on Sunday afternoon.
I will take a moment to thank the organizers for the excellent arrangements in Bangkok. The meals/snacks/drinks options alone were spectacular.

Same. I appreciate that it is necessary to thank sponsors and the
like, but these overheads could be greatly reduced or eliminated.
Why can't they all be like the Cisco host talk at the plenary?
