AOSD Demo a success

I like the idea of Demo madness: using that tiny bit one minute, I managed to attract 40+ people coming to my talk (The average number of attendance is 10 or even less). People got excited about the idea and the tool, asking whether it's open source, making interesting suggestions. I handled their questions surprisingly well, which even surprised myself too. I can still remember the applause at the end of the demo.

Their feedbacks/questions include:
- will this be open source?
- will this be part of AJDT?
- Performance issue
- Use the same idea of suggesting to include some join point shadows to exclude some jps
- Quick fix addition
- Almost matched jps should be in different level (the idea of "more" button)
- What is the criteria of being selected as almost matches? (heuristics)
- Heuristics available on website? (will be on a paper)

Overall, I'm surprised and excited that I could do that well speaking in public: one minute in front of over 1000+ ppl and 30 minutes on 40+ ppl (I am bad at counting, so these numbers could be totally wrong), for madness and the demo respectively. It was really a success for myself.
