<p class="center">EmacsConf 2021 | Online Conference |
<strong>November 27 and 28, 2021 (Sat-Sun)</strong></p>

<p class="center">[[!img /i/emacsconf-logo1-256.png
alt="EmacsConf logo"]]</p>

<p class="center">[[<strong>Schedule</strong>|schedule]] |
[[<strong>Posters</strong>|poster]] | [[Prepare]] | [[Planning]] |
[[Guidelines for Conduct|conduct]]</p>

<p class="center">EmacsConf is the conference about the joy of
<a href="https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/">Emacs</a> and
Emacs Lisp.</p>

We are holding EmacsConf 2021 as an online conference again this year.
We remain fully committed to freedom, and we will continue using our
infrastructure and streaming setup consisting entirely of [free
software][freesw], much like previous EmacsConf conferences.

## Watching

On November 27 and 28, you will be able to watch the livestreams via
<https://live.emacsconf.org>, which will also have details on how to
watch the streams using media players that support streaming (like mpv
and VLC). You can also watch via
[Toobnix](https://toobnix.org/w/dL9uREZZYaiHZia7S2yCVU).

## Participating

For audience questions specifically, we will use a
collaboratively-editable Etherpad as the primary means of collecting
audience questions. We will be posting a link to the pad closer to the
event. If, however, you are unable to access the pad to add your
question(s), we will still try to take questions from our
questions-specific IRC channel (`#emacsconf-questions` on
`irc.libera.chat`), and we ask one or two volunteers to kindly add
questions from that channel to the pad on behalf of folks who are not
able to or prefer not to use the web-based questions pad.

Come hang out with us in the `#emacsconf` channel on `irc.libera.chat`
(the [Libera.Chat][libera] IRC network).  You can join the chat using
[your favourite IRC client][libera-emacsconf],
[your favourite Matrix client][matrix-emacsconf], or by visiting
[chat.emacsconf.org][chat] in your web browser.
