            I authorize the EmacsConf organizers to distribute, reproduce,

    -   in-progress An Emacs Developer Story: From User to Maintainer     :standard:user:community:
    
        Name: Leo Vivier
        
        -   Preferred format
        
            Standard Talk (20 min).
        
        -   Abstract
        
            In light of the new development philosophy for Org-mode, I would like
            to present my developer story from discovering Org-mode in 2014 to
            becoming a maintainer for a big project in 2020.  The goal is to show
            the logical progression between interest, gaining skills, becoming an
            expert, authoring, contributing and maintaining, in hope that it would
            bolster people to do the same.
            
            As someone who majored in a non CS-related degree, I feel that my
            story has a potential to grasp the attention of many attendees, since
            I basically started from the bottom of the ladder.  Most people should
            be able to relate to one step on that ladder, which should hopefully
            encourage them to reach for the next step.
            
            My init files, which show the organic growth of my configuration:
            <https://github.com/zaeph/.emacs.d>
            
            Org-roam, the software which I am maintaining
            <https://github.com/org-roam/org-roam>
        
        -   (Un)availability
        
            I am in CET, and I would rather have the presentation early in the day
            (9am-12pm EST would be stellar).  If need be, I could present later,
            but I do not think I would be as effective.

            Standard talk (I am ok to reduce this to a lightning talk as well)
        
        -   Abstract
        
            You want to write a novel, but you don't know how to create an
            outline.  You have a seed idea for a novel, and you intend to expand
            it into a complete story.  You have many ideas for a novel, and you
            are wondering how to proceed.  You started writing your heart out, and
            you now feel the need to create a framework for a novel.
            
            Worry not, Emacs is here to the rescue.
            
            Listen to this talk to find out how to develop your story idea into a
            framework for a novel, all within your favourite text editor, Emacs.
            
            What you will learn during the session:
            
            -   How to write a single-line plot for a novel
            -   How to write the backbone of the novel, the main character arc
            -   How to create characters and write their arcs
            -   How to create a story design
            -   How to create the scenes design
            -   How to plan your novel writing project
            -   How to track your project
            
            The modified Emacs template has all the ingredients and flow to start
            from a basic idea to a full fledged thrashed out novel superstructure.
            
            Once you are done with the superstructure, you can use the planning
            and clocking infrastructure to finish scene after scene, thus
            finishing your masterpiece.

            LilyPond is an extensible program for producing high-quality sheet
            music engraved with traditional layout rules.  Similar to LaTeX and
            other typesetting programs, its input format simply describes the
            visual layout of the score using commands to define musical
            expressions.  This makes collaboration easier, prevents users from
            having to adjust layout settings manually, and faciliates digital
            archiving and distribution of musical scores.  In this talk, I begin
            by showcasing LilyPond syntax and mode using literate programming
            techniques as examples for building sheet music in Emacs, and proceed
            with an overview of the setup I use for producing music books with GNU
            Make, LilyPond, and LilyPond-mode.

        -   Abstract
        
            I hoped to become a successful musician someday, and while that has
            yet to happen, I've recorded a fair share of unreleased music over the
            years.  I decided it was time to share some of it with the world
            through the power of Emacs!
            
            Rather than using the available non-free (or even free?) platforms out
            there, I decided to build a Bandcamp-like page from scratch.  While I
            could have chosen many of the static-site building tools, I decided to
            use the tool closest to my heart and automate the process of building
            a web page from a directory of audio files with Emacs Lisp.
            
            I will share with you how I managed to create a personal workflow for
            releasing an album without leaving the One True Editor that includes
            editing audio metadata with EMMS and generating HTML while cobbling
            together yasnippet and the format macro.

        -   Abstract
        
            A practiced dexterity with the arcane incantations known as keybindings is
            the true mark of the veteran Emacs user. Yet, it takes years to get there,
            and if you tried to explain what you were doing there, nobody would
            understand, least of all those Vim users who would say that the whole
            enterprise was foolhardy to begin with. They don't get it, those fools. Let
            them flounder about in their "normal mode." Normal isn't good enough for
            me! I want exceptional, IDEAL, I want&#x2026; glorious mode, that's what I want.
            And the only thing that'll cut it is if I do it &#x2026; my way. Why, with my
            precious emacs.d, I'm invincible! Well&#x2026; just between you and me, there
            are times when learning new keybindings every time someone makes a new toy
            gets to be a bit of a drag, and some days I can't keep my C-c's and my C-c
            C-c's straight if I'm being honest with you, but you'll never catch me
            admitting it! I do wonder if there's a better way to get to glorious mode,
            even though my .emacs.d is already perfect (of course).
            
            If this secretly sounds like you, then rejoice, there just might be a new
            way, a better way! And you could potentially get there in days instead of
            years, so that even your script kiddie coworker with their "VSCode" (groan)
            may at last come around to your way of looking at things, and, maybe, just
            maybe, even those Vim users (hiss!)!
            
            "Epistemic" Emacs is a user interface paradigm based on treating aspects of
            the user interface as conceptual entities that can be reasoned about in
            terms of a standard language. Essentially, instead of learning keybindings
            for each specific action, you learn keybindings for general, conceptual
            habits, kind of like Vim, except that instead of reasoning only about text,
            you reason about any aspect of your interaction with the machine, whether
            it's windows or buffers or even those interactions themselves. The promise
            of this approach is that you just learn a simple language once, and you can
            then apply it to vastly different aspects of your user interface, with the
            same keybindings doing different things in different contexts, in sensible
            and predictable ways. And in principle, whenever that new toy technology
            comes around, anyone could extend the UI language to apply to it in a
            matter of minutes, and you'd already know how to use it.

            It's not always easy to take part of someone's configuration and make
            it work, it's almost never easy to move your configuration to fresh OS
            installation or hardware.  Not sure that this snippet is enough to
            make package work?  Forgot to install ripgrep in your system for
            rg.el?  Got a broken version of package on package-install?
            
            There is a way to make an Emacs configuration reliable, composable and
            self-contained.  It's possible to freeze package versions, create
            systemd unit for emacs daemon, maintain system dependencies and
            package subconfigurations in one place with one tool.
            
            The talk explains how to leverage the power of nix package manager and
            use-package to make pretty good emacs configuration.
            
            There is a stream record on the same topic:
            <https://youtu.be/2_e3kPJQ93s>.  It lacks few interesting points about
            composability of such configuration approach, but already have enough
            interesting information.  The talk will be a little more structured
            and more Emacs-users oriented.

        -   Abstract
        
            In the last months there were several hundreds of messages in
            emacs-devel in threads with names like "A proposal for a friendlier
            Emacs", "How to make Emacs popular again", and "Interactive guide for
            new users".  On the one hand I am absolutely sure that eev is very
            good answer to all these themes; on the other hand I know that eev is
            based on some design decisions that offend most people used to modern,
            "user-friendly" interfaces - and I feel that at this moment mentions
            to eev in those discussions in emacs-devel would not be welcome.
            
            In this talk I will start by presenting very quickly the main "killer
            features" of eev - namely:
            
            1.  Elisp hyperlinks,
            
            2.  interactive tutorials that can be navigated with just three keys,
            
            3.  non-invasiveness - people can easily turn eev on for only five
                minutes each week, play with it a bit, and then turn it off,
            
            4.  high discoverability factor,
            
            5.  a way to create "hyperlinks to here",
            
            6.  hyperlinks to specific points in PDF documents and video files -
                i.e., to specific pages, strings, and timemarks,
            
            7.  a way to control shell-like programs ("eepitch"), and
            
            8.  an Elisp tutorial,
            
            and after that I will present the design decisions behind eev, in two
            parts:
            
            1.  eev is a very thin layer above Emacs-the-Lisp-environment; it is
                as simple as possible, but in the sense of "simple" that was used
                in Forth, and that is not very familiar today.
            
            2.  Very often when I am using Emacs - which is my main interface
                with the system - I realize that I can automate some task that I
                just did by hand twice of thrice; and that I should do that,
                because automating that would be both easy and fun.  Over the
                years I experimented with several ways of automating tasks,
                refined some of these ways a lot, and found a certain "best"
                style that, again, usually offends people who are accustomed with
                the modern ideas of user-friendliness.  In this style, used in
                most template-based functions in eev, both textual documentation
                and error-handling are kept to a minimum.  I will show how, and
                why, eev makes this style works so well, and how users can create
                their own templated functions very quickly - as "5-minute hacks".
        
        -   (Un)availability
        
            I will be available the whole day.

    -   Abstract
    
        This is a talk about Orgmode, my favorite Emacs application.  The goal
        is to show you the power of Emacs when you want to manage and organize
        your life.  Orgmode is your swiss army knife for that job, and so far
        the only tool that you can customize for your needs and you need to
        customize yourself to fit the restrictions of a "ToDo list tool".
        
        Background info: I'm using Orgmode for many years now, and I'm not
        exaggerating if I tell you that it saved me from a nervous breakdown
        when my wife got diagonosed with severe illness and I was suddenly in
        charge of everything.  Orgmode was there and reminded me of the
        important things so nothing was forgotten and I could focus on what
        really matters.
        
        This talk should introduce people to Orgmode, showing them what they
        can do and how it makes your life easier, freeing time for the things
        that matter to you.
        
        I was holding a similar talk at the local Linux Day in our town in
        
        1.  In 2016 I recorded a set of tutorial videos which are available
        
        on my YouTube channel which gained more than 3500 subcribers because
        of those tutorials.  In Summer 2020 I recorded the tutorials again for
        a course at Udemy which went online in October 2020 and is
        supplemented by a 100+ pages course book.

        The world is full of possibilities. A person life is rather short

        In this short talk I want to share how Org mode empowers me into
        organizing and monitoring my tasks to make sure I am working towards
        achieving my vision.
        
        The emphasis of the talk is on defining a direction, monitoring the
        progress towards your planned destination, and keeping a trail of your
        actions to review and set up a healthy feedback loop.
        
        Tools for the job that I will (at least) mention: Org files, Org

-   in-progress One Big-ass Org File or multiple tiny ones?  Finally, the End of the debate!     :standard:lightning:org:user:timing:

    Name: Leo Vivier
    
    -   Preferred format
    
        Standard Talk (20 min).  Could be condensed into a Lightning Talk (10
        min), but I fear it would not do it justice.
    
    -   Abstract
    
        Many discussions have been had over the years on the debate between
        using few big files versus many small files.  However, more often than
        not, those discussions devolve in a collection of anecdotes with
        barely any science to them.
        
        Once and for all (or, at least until org-element.el get overhauled), I
        would like to settle the debate by explaining why the way we parse
        Org-mode files becomes slower as our files grow in size or numbers,
        and how that affects their browsing and the building of custom-agenda
        views.
        
        I feel qualified to talk about this topic for two reasons:
        
        -   I went through the trouble of optimising my agenda-views by
            implementing clever regex-based skips, so I know the ceiling that
            can be reached with the current tech.
        -   My work on Org-roam has led me to consider the use of an external
            parser for Org-mode files, and whilst we are only at the prototyping
            stage, we know what is at stake.
        
        I intend the talk to be fairly light-hearted and humorous, which is the
        only way we can do true justice to the topic.
    
    -   (Un)availability
    
        I am in CET, and I would rather have the presentation early in the day
        (9am-12pm EST would be stellar).  If need be, I could present later,
        but I do not think I would be as effective.

-   in-progress Experience Report: Steps to "Emacs Hyper Notebooks"

    Name: Joseph Corneli, Raymond Puzio, and Cameron Ray Smith
    
    -   Preferred format
    
        10 minute talk
    
    -   Abstract
    
        We present a short experience report from the perspective of two
        long-time Emacs users and one relative newcomer.  Our motivations
        relate, broadly, to reproducibility of research in science.  We
        reflect on our experiences with off-the-self solutions available
        through the Emacs package manager, and describe some of our custom
        extensions.
        
        When working on a scientific research project, one typically has
        multiple different computer programs running at the same time.  For
        example, we may use a computer algebra system such as Maxima for
        calculations, an interactive language such as Julia for numerical
        computations, TeX for writing up results, a reference manger such as
        Zotero for the bibliography, Roam for note-taking, and Jekyll for
        blogging.  Switching and moving content among these programs can be
        distracting, time-consuming, and prone to error.  These issues are
        compounded when there are several collaborators involved.
        
        We explore a solution that looks toward building better "computational
        notebooks" using Emacs.  We take Org mode as our foundation.  As many

    -   Preferred format
    
        I think I have enough for a full 50 minutes.  But I can do a shorter
        version too if that will work better for the conference schedule.
        My schedule is wide open too, so put me in at any time slot.
    
    -   Abstract
    
        Org mode, among its numerous features, has the ability to do full
        literate programming (with tangling and weaving the way Donald Knuth
        originally intended).  As a programmer, you can work comfortably,
        completely inside an org-mode buffer.  When you are ready, emacs will
        generate the appropriate documentation and source code files for you.
        If you are a lone emacs user on your project, simply commit these
        exported files and keep your org file to yourself &#x2013; no one is the
        wiser.
        
        Watch "Literate Programming in Emacs Org-mode" to learn how you can
        annotate code snippets in an org file so they can be automatically
        exported to their proper locations in your source tree.  Keep
        important information about your project where it should be: right
        next to the code itself.  Not as ugly, out-of-date notes sitting
        behind comment characters in your source files, but front and center
        in well-formatted markdown and pdf files.
        
        And, for advanced use cases, see how you can even use a full-fledged
        macro processor like m4 to personalize your workflow even more.
        Literate programming on steroids!
        
        I'll walk you through the whole process, starting from an empty
        project README.org to a simple example that generates source and
        documentation.

        programming comes into play to generate "dynamic" content.
        
        In this talk/tutorial I will present the challenges I faced and how I

    Name: Leo Vivier
    
    -   Preferred format
    
        Extended Talk (50 min).  Parts can be pruned to fit in a Standard Talk
        (20 min), but I'd strongly prefer the former.
    
    -   Abstract
    
        Org-roam is a Roam replica built on top of the all-powerful Org-mode.
        
        Org-roam is a solution for effortless non-hierarchical note-taking with
        Org-mode.  With Org-roam, notes flow naturally, making note-taking fun
        and easy.  Org-roam should also work as a plug-and-play solution for
        anyone already using Org-mode for their personal wiki.
        
        Org-roam aims to implement the core features of Roam, leveraging the
        mature ecosystem around Org-mode where possible.  Eventually, we hope to
        further introduce features enabled by the Emacs ecosystem.
        
        The purpose of the talk is to introduce people to Org-roam, whether
        they be Org-mode connoisseurs or newcomers.  A lot of people have
        found value in adopting Org-roam and the Zettelkasten method in their
        workflows, and the goal is to demonstrate how they achieved it.  The
        last part will present the future milestones that are in store for
        Org-roam.

    -   Abstract
    
        Org-mode improved so much over the years, and the use-cases in org-mode are
        vast and highly technical. There is something for everyone in org-mode, and
        it's important to sift through all of these features and figure out what's
        best for a given situation or specific users. Therefore, I will be
        targeting academics and scholars that are engaging with literature in the
        early stages of a project or their academic careers.
        
        Academics and scholars engage with complex ideas and unstructured research
        workflows. I believe that org-mode can add more structure to the madness,
        and I will use this talk to clarify a possible solution to reduce such
        complexity.  I propose a research workflow framework that utilizes
        org-mode, its raw form, and its many associated packages. However, the main
        package I will be mostly talking about is Org-Roam, and the way its
        underlying principles will revolutionize the research workflow.
        
        This presentation will help researchers organize and build their knowledge
        database in a streamlined and effective way. The research workflow is
        presented in three phases: planning, note-taking, and reference management.
        I will talk briefly about the packages and special-use cases for each stage
        and learned lessons along the way. Finally, the presentation concludes with
        future considerations and possible org-mode features.

        to further introduce features enabled by the Emacs ecosystem.
        
        The purpose of the talk is to present some technical aspects of
        Org-roam.  From the very beginning, we wanted Org-roam to scale with
        your notes, and this meant that we had to keep a close eye on our
        performances.  As we iterated, optimisation remained a top-priority,
        leading us to constantly peek under Org-mode's hood.  Not only has
        this made us better developers, but it has also uncovered paths of
        optimisation for Org-mode itself.
        
        The talk is targeted at software engineers willing to peek under
        Org-mode's hood.  A rudimentary understanding of Elisp will be
        required.
        
        Points to be covered
        
        -   SQL database via emacsql
        -   Elisp libraries

        Macros are a powerful tool.  In the context of Emacs Lisp programming

        game engine and game design features for Emacs.
        
        In this 20m talk I'll briefly introduce some rationales leading to
        storing all game source and play state information within org-mode
        documents (spoiler: it's about freedom), then go into some detail
        around the "ETL" process design that currently accomplishes this.
        Finally, we'll look closely at one especially problematic macro deep

-   in-progress Emacs development update

    -   Abstract
    
        TBD - possibly a quick overview of Emacs 27.1 and development priorities for Emacs 28

-   in-progress Powering-up Special Blocks     :standard:org:elisp:

    Name: Musa Al-hassy
    
    -   Preferred format
    
        Standard talk

        > 2020-10-18: Moved back to Sunday, e-mailed.
        > 2020-10-17: Possibly move to Saturday? E-mailed 2020-10-17. Might be good to put this before OMG Macros.
    
    -   Abstract
    
        Users will generally only make use of a few predefined \`special
        blocks', such as \`example, centre, quote', and will not bother with
        the effort required to make new ones.  When new encapsulating notions
        are required, users will either fallback on HTML or LaTeX specific
        solutions, usually littered with \`#+ATTR' clauses to pass around
        configurations or parameters.
        
        Efforts have been exerted to mitigate the trouble of producing new
        special blocks.  However, the issue of passing parameters is still
        handled in a clumsy fashion; e.g., by having parameters be expressed
        in a special block's content using specific keywords.
        
        We present a novel approach to making special blocks in a familiar
        fashion and their use also in a familiar fashion. We achieve the
        former by presenting \`\`defblock'', an anaphoric macro exceedingly
        similar to \`\`defun'', and for the latter we mimic the usual
        \`\`src''-block syntax for argument passing to support special blocks.
        
        For instance, here is a sample declaration.
        
            (defblock stutter () (reps 2)
              "Output the CONTENTS of the block REPS many times"
              (org-parse (s-repeat reps contents)))
        
        Here is an invocation that passes an *optional* argument; which
        defaults to 2 when not given.
        
        <div class="stutter">
        <p>
        Emacs for the win ⌣̈
        </p>
        
        </div>
        
        Upon export, to HTML or LaTeX for instance, the contents of this block
        are repeated (\`stuttered') 5 times.  The use of \`\`src''-like
        invocation may lead to a decrease in \`#+ATTR' clauses.
        
        In the presentation, we aim to show a few \`practical' special blocks
        that users may want: A block that &#x2026;
        
        -   translates *some selected* text &#x2014;useful for multilingual blogs
        -   hides *some selected* text &#x2014;useful for learning, quizzes
        -   folds/boxes text &#x2014;useful in blogs for folding away details
        
        In particular, all of these examples will be around ~5 lines long!
        
        We also have a larger collection of more useful block types, already
        implemented.
        
        The notable features of the system are as follows.
        
        -   Familiar \`\`defun'' syntax for making block &#x2014;\`\`defblock''
        -   Familiar \`\`src'' syntax for passing arguments &#x2014;e.g., \`\`:key
            value''
        -   Fine-grained control over export translation phases &#x2014;c.f.,
            \`\`org-parse'' above
        -   **Modular**: New blocks can be made out of existing blocks really
            quickly using \`\`blockcall'' &#x2014;similar to Lisp's \`\`funcall''.  We
            will show how to fuse two blocks to make a new one, also within ~5
            lines.
        
        It is hoped that the ease of creating custom special blocks will be a
        gateway for many Emacs users to start using Lisp.

    Name: Tuấn-Anh Nguyễn
    
    -   Preferred format
    
        50 minutes (Extended talk)
    
    -   Abstract
    
        Tree-sitter is a parser generator and an incremental parsing library.
        emacs-tree-sitter is its most popular Emacs binding, which aims to be
        the foundation of Emacs packages that understand source code's
        structure.  Examples include better code highlighting, folding,
        indexing, structural navigation.
        
        In this talk, I will describe the current state of emacs-tree-sitter's
        APIs and functionalities.  I will also discuss areas that need
        improvements and contribution from the community.

    -   Abstract
    
        Emacs, show me how much technical debt and where it is in this
        software repository!
        
        Also how complex is this module?
        
        And who is the main developer of this component?
        
        Mmm, if I change this file, do I need to change something else, Emacs?
        
        Ah, I need help of somebody to change this code! Emacs can you tell me
        who knows something about this file?
        
        The above are some questions my Emacs can answer (an M-x away).
        
        It all started with "Your Code as a Crime Scene", an insightful book
        by Adam Tornhill, and it continued with a big useful hack.
        
        In this talk I want to show the analyses I can produce on software
        repositories with my Emacs, explain how they help me in my daily work,
        give a bit of context of how Adam came up with them, and show the
        dirty code that makes this wonderful functionality work.

-   in-progress Traverse complex JSON structures with live feedback     :lightning:dev:

    Name: Zen Monk Alain M. Lafon
    
    -   Preferred format
    
        Lightning talk (pre-recorded video is possible)
    
    -   Abstract
    
        If you are working with complex nested JSON structures, you are
        probably familiar with jq which is like sed for JSON data and great at
        what it does.  However, being a command-line tool like sed, the
        feedback for writing queries and seeing their results is a discrete
        process and not live.
        
        When working with Emacs, we are used to good auto-completion and live
        feedback.  Formerly, this was mostly done with static input, but with
        modern completion frameworks like Ivy and Counsel, this can be done
        with dynamic inputs, as well.
        
        counsel-jq is a package with which you can quickly test queries and
        traverse a complex JSON structure whilst having live feedback.  Just
        call `M-x counsel-jq` in a buffer containing JSON, then start writing
        your `jq` query string and see the output appear live in the message
        area.  Whenever you're happy, hit `RET` and the results will be
        displayed to you in the buffer `*jq-json*`.
        
        In this lightning talk, I'll give a quick overview on how to use
        counsel-jq and how to build similar completion functionality.
    
    -   (Un)availability
    
        Both dates are good, even though it's my birthday on the 28th.  But
        I'll happily make space for EmacsConf(;

    -   Abstract
    
        Could Emacs be humanity's solution to the turbulent years of
        adolescence?  So much more than a text editor, Emacs changed the way I
        approach everything at the age of 15.  In the two years since
        discovering Emacs in my sophomore year of high school, I have been
        constantly amazed at what Emacs is capable of.  In this talk, I would
        like to share this journey of discovery and what I've learned along
        the way, beginning with what led me to Emacs.  I will describe the
        many ways that Emacs has shaped my life as a student, a programmer, a
        violinist, and a productive and happy adolescent.  In each case, I
        have thoroughly enjoyed figuring out the best way to make Emacs work
        for me, and I'd like to share this with others.  In addition, I'd like
        to take this opportunity to address some roadblocks that I have
        noticed having observed some of my peers' attempts at learning Emacs
        and possible solutions for those barriers, taking inspiration from
        various sources both from inside and outside the Emacs community.

    Name: Erik Elmshauser and Corwin Brust
    
    -   Preferred format
    
        Extended talk (50m, including 10-15m Q&A)
    
    -   Abstract
    
        Dungeon is an oral and physical media fantasy and abstract role-play
        gaming tradition that seems to have grown from miniature and
        war-gaming communities in and around the University of Minnesota, Twin
        Cities in the 1950s and 60s.
        
        Dungeon is inherently free (or nearly free, you do need paper and
        dice), both to play and to create your own games.  Moreover, as a
        generality among practices, as Dungeon authors, we dislike impositions
        on our creative freedoms beyond those of our own imagination and
        tastes, especially those such as of a "brand" or "system", or e.g.
        copyright holder.
        
        In December of 2019 some friends who grew up creating and playing in
        each others' Dungeons decided to try making an engine for these types
        of games using Emacs and Emacs Lisp, org-mode, and maybe some
        duct-tape if needed.  In this 50 minute talk Corwin and Erik introduce
        dungeon-mode, and explain why we decided to do that.  We'll sketch out
        the project in both lay and technical terms, provide a tactical update
        with respect to completing our initial concept, describe how things
        are going in human terms, and share some things we've learned so far
        from and about Emacs and the free software community working on this
        project, while leaving 10-15m for questions and discussion.

        Standard talk (20m, including 5m Q&A)
    
    -   Abstract
    
        We hope the dungeon-mode project will eventually support three primary
        use-cases related to editing/designing, playing and running/hosting
        RPG games.  In a "vanilla" game, characters descend from the "General
        Store" (the one safe haven available) into the dungeon, a (nominally)
        underground labyrinth of unknown dimensions with generally asocial
        occupants and occasional bits of treasure.
        
        Players can track (as long as the "lights" stay on) the location of
        their party of characters via a process we usually call "mapping".
        This has usually involved the dungeon master "calling out" the shape
        of the map level as the party, in turn, calls out their route or
        "pathing" decisions.

            DUNGEON-MASTER
               "Ten feet, corridor ends goes South"
            PARTY-LEADER
               "South"
            DUNGEON-MASTER
               "Step into an area.  It's a
                twenty-by-twenty area extending
               West, with exits in the Western
               part of the southern wall and the
               Southern part of the eastern wall."
                      **rolls dice**
               "Nothing waiting in the area"
        
        Mapping quickly emerged as a focal point for development.  Especially,
        we were to excited to try creating an 'on-the-fly' graphical
        representation of the map that could respond to changing in-game
        circumstances.  (Oops, all your Elves are dead.  Where'd the secret
        doors go?)
        
        During this 20m talk I'll provide a couple of reference points on
        Emacs's image and especially SVG rendering capabilities, then
        introduce a series of proofs-of-concept focusing on our experience
        using core libraries such as \`svg.el' to make them.
        
        As of submitting abstracts, these include
        
        -   "DM map view" - select and render a complete game map,
        -   "play mode map" - progressively render maps based on game action,
        -   "battle-board" - track damage taken by player characters, and
        -   "character-sheet" - a graphical character sheet
        -   "previews" - view map tiles when hovering their draw code in org
        -   "sketch" - a "click-to-draw" experiment
        
        For an advanced peek please see our git repository (but note we're
        moving to Savannah soon).  We'll be talking first about [map.el](https://github.com/dungeon-mode/game/blob/master/src/dm-map.el),
        especially \`dm-map-draw' and helpers.  A few sample game maps this can
        render are available as org-mode documents in the [Docs/Maps](https://github.com/dungeon-mode/game/blob/master/Docs/Maps) folder.
        
        Those interested could compare functions between dm-map.el and
        [dm-draw.el](https://github.com/dungeon-mode/game/blob/master/src/dm-draw.el), which is an incomplete rewrite of the "SVG rendering"
        functions used only by [dm-sketch.el](https://github.com/dungeon-mode/game/blob/master/src/dm-sketch.el) (so far).  Hopefully, it will be
        writing our "sketches" back out to org docs in time for the
        conference.
        
        Note on github:
        The project is transitioning to Savannah.  Please watch for
        redirects/moved notices when using these links.

        I am flexible.  I've done a 5 minute version as well.
    
    -   Abstract
    
        When I began learning Lakota, the language of my ancestors, there was
        no way for me to type it on a computer without using non-free
        software.  Additionally, the only software I could find supported just
        one of the proposed orthographies for the language.
        
        As an Emacs user, I knew that free software offered the ability for
        many types of languages to co-exist in the same program and went
        looking for how to enable an input mode for Lakota in Emacs.  This
        talk will discuss how Emacs enabled me to define input modes for
        multiple Lakota orthographies using the Quail multilingual input
        package.
        
        I will also discuss some of the ethical and cultural considerations I
        went through when publishing the package.  Lakota and many other
        indigenous languages were actively suppressed for many years, and are
        in danger of extinction.  The language is being recovered now, but
        much of the available educational material comes from non-indian
        people.  Before publishing an input mode for Emacs, I wanted to ensure
        that I included an orthography developed by Lakota people, not only
        the suggested orthography present in most of my educational material.
        Additionally, the choice of where to publish the source as an Emacs
        package was important, since some corporations have been known to
        support ongoing oppression against indigenous descended peoples.

        It would be fun to have a Q&A, if that's an option.
    
    -   Abstract
    
        The venerable Gnus newsreader has evolved over the years to interface
        with many different types of news- or mail-like backend programs,
        presenting all of them using a unified interface.  This sort of
        software often calls for an object-oriented architecture, at least as
        regards polymorphism, yet Gnus was written well before Emacs lisp
        acquired the object-oriented tools and libraries &#x2013; largely borrowed
        from Common Lisp &#x2013; that it boasts today.
        
        Yet Gnus needed something "object-oriented-like", and so nnoo.el was
        born: a rather amazing (and frankly terrifying) implementation of
        object-oriented behavior using functional code.
        
        This talk will be a brief introduction to how this existing system
        works, and to the ongoing, incremental effort to port it over to newer

        Standard
    
    -   Abstract
    
        Emacs Application Framework (EAF) is a customizable and extensible GUI
        application framework that extends Emacs graphical capabilities using
        PyQt5.  This talk will cover the architecture design of the EAF
        project, and demonstrate some of its most useful applications: modern
        browser, PDF viewer, video player, etc.

-   in-progress WAVEing at Repetitive Repetitive Repetitive Music     :standard:lightning:music:elisp:

    Name: Zachary Kanfer
    
    -   Preferred format
    
        Standard or Lightning talk.  With a Lightning talk, I'd go less into
        detail on some of the odd corners of the project, like zero-width
        spaces rendering with nonzero width.  But it would still be a viable
        talk.
    
    -   Abstract
    
        During quarantine, I found myself spending time with an Android app.
        One of the features this app has is composing music that loops
        endlessly.  As with many things, I wondered how much better this tool
        would be, if only it was inside Emacs.
        
        This talk will explain how I made this tool inside Emacs, with detours
        through Emacs text properties, font rendering, the .WAVE file format,
        and music theory.  And hopefully at the end, we'll have something
        worth listening to.

## Planning

This check\_time block can be called from different headings. It sums
up the minimum time from the talks in the subtree and compares it with
the target time.

    (list (list "Difference" "Minimum time" "Target time")
          (list
           (- (string-to-number (org-entry-get (point) "TARGET_TIME"))
