[CREATE] State of Libre Graphics talk at SCaLE

I think the normal way of collecting State of slides for LGM is to have the
project provide a few slides at most, and then a speaking script.  Boud
usually talks through the slides according to the script (or whoever is
stepping up to the plate that year to present it - it was boud in
Saarbruecken and I thought he did a fantastic job - his voice is like
butter).

We can certainly upload what we put together to maybe fill in any gaps or
projects that didn't get a chance to submit anything.

If anyone gets a moment to maybe drop a few words about their project
status in the hackmd that would be awesome, btw! :)
We've had a good turnout in the past couple of years for the "Libre
Graphics" track at SCaLE and it would be great to provide some project
updates to the audience there.
