#2Might be worth linking to the original press release, which actually contains a link to the presentation: http://www.cam.ac.uk/research/news/new-gold-standard-establi...
The presentation is however locked until the event where it will be presented begins. Has anyone actually found the actual source code and data? Seems strange to launch a PR campaign while none of the mentioned resources are open yet.

This is a timezone issue. The conference doesn't officially begin until 8:30am PST (~4hrs from now). Nevertheless, the website can be found here: http://camsas.org/qjump, open-access to the paper can be found here: https://www.usenix.org/conference/nsdi15/technical-sessions/... and the original press release is here http://www.cam.ac.uk/research/news/new-gold-standard-establi...

#4How is this a new standard? Many people publish code and data sets alongside their paper. It's the best way to earn citations.

In my experience very few publications (none in the related work) publish the original unprocessed measurement datasets that were captured during the experiments. In some cases these can be obtained from the authors provided that the paper isn't too old and the author hasn't graduated/moved on to another post. Furthermore, with this paper, not only is the code and data made available, but detailed instructions of the configuration settings and options for every experiment are included. These sorts of details are too space consuming to include in journal / conference publications and so are rarely recorded anywhere.
