+Debugging Reproducible Builds One Day at a Time
+
+Reproducible builds are a set of software development practices that
+create an independently-verifiable path from source to binary code.  A
+build is reproducible if given the same source code, build environment
+and build instructions, any party can recreate bit-by-bit identical
+copies of all specified artifacts.
+
+I'd like to share with you my process for going about fixing
+Reproducible Builds issues in Debian, though some of the ideas will be
+applicable to debugging issues of any kind in any environment.
+
+I'll explore how I go about identifying issues to work on, learn more
+about the specific issues, recreate the problem locally, isolate the
+potential causes, dissect the problem into identifiable parts, and
+adapt the packaging and/or source code to fix the issues.
+
+This will give you an eye into how I think about, struggle with, and
+eventually fix all sorts of things.
+
+Watching this talk should help you go from someone who "knows a bit of
+code" to someone ready to submit a fix to your favorite free software
+project!
+
+This talk will mostly focus on the *hows* of Reproducible Builds, not
+too much on the *whys*, which can be further explored at:
