## Draft CFP


### How to mark pages as drafts

Put inside double square brackets: `!template id=pagedraft`

### Considerations

We could see if there are parts of the CFP that we can remove or
postpone. Here are some thoughts:

-   We might not need the 10+20+40 structure in the proposal. We did
    that before because people tend to propose longer talks, and we had
    to do lots of e-mail coordination in order to squeeze everything
    into one track. If we&rsquo;re doing multiple streams, there&rsquo;s less time
    pressure, so we might not need to confuse people with those
    requirements. I think it would still be good to nudge people towards
    20 minutes for their prerecorded presentations (separate time for
    Q&A) instead of 40 minutes, because it&rsquo;s good for people&rsquo;s attention
    spans. As an incentive to consider a 5-10 minute talk, we can say
    that 5-10 minute videos can be played extra times during the
    conference to fill gaps.
    -   Choices:
        -   Keep the 10+20+40 structure so that people who want to propose
            longer talks are nudged to think about shorter versions
        -   Strongly nudge people towards 20-minute talks, with repeats as
            the incentive for shorter talks and extra coordination/waiting
            needed for longer talks. People propose just the talk length
            they want (and can optionally propose other talk lengths if they
            want to be considered for them).
-   We added emergency contact info, public contact info, pronouns, and
    introduction to the submission form because we ended up going back
    and forth with people in previous years, and sometimes we had
    incomplete info and were panicking about how to reach people during
    the conference. We could drop this from the submission form and do a
    separate speaker information form.
    -   Choices:
        -   Talk submission, then speaker information form: less
            intimidating for speakers
        -   Everything in one: easier for organizers

### Previous years

-   Ask for public e-mail or contact information, IRC handle in CFP
    -   Added to submit page.
-   Be even more stringent about the 10/20/40-min splits. A lot of
    speakers still default to the 20- or 40-min formats without
    providing us shorter formats, and that puts strain on our schedule
    and requires us to use a different template for the notification
    (which can be confusing). We need to stress that not respecting the
    format makes it harder not only for the organizers, but also for the
    speakers themselves (since they will have to rethink their
    presentation). Maybe we can have an e-mail template for a quick
    reply that says something like &ldquo;Just in case we need to squeeze
    talks into shorter times, could you please also propose an outline
    for a possible 10-minute talk that could get people interested in
    your topic and point them to where they can find out more?&rdquo;
    -   sachac: I&rsquo;d love to experiment with rolling acceptances. If people
        have a good 10-20 minute version of their talk and we want to
        accept it in the program, it would be nice to be able to say yes
        early so that they can start working on it. We can work with any
        duplication of content in later proposals.
-   Two people is the sweet number of reviewers to have for the
    proposals before sending the notifications, and there’d be
    diminishing returns with more. Two is enough to release the pressure
    on SCHED, verify the metadata (esp. speaker availability), and
    suggest a different ordering where appropriate. It can take a long
    time to comb through the proposals (roughly 10 proposals per hour),
    and whilst it’d be difficult to justify more in-depth reviewers,
    other orgas can do a shallow-pass to catch red-flags or discuss the
    submissions as they come in. Other organizers can always chime in on
    topics they particularly care about so that their encouraging
    comments or suggestions can be included in the acceptance e-mail.
    -   sachac: Who wants to help me with this?
-   We extended CFP-end by two weeks this year, but that made it coincide
    with speaker-notifs, and that’s awkward.  Next time, we should only
    extend the CFP by one week to avoid having to scramble with the
    schedule until the very last day.
    -   Proposed dates in <https://emacsconf.org/2023/cfp/> have similar
        spacing, so yeah, we&rsquo;ll want to extend by only one week.
-   Some people assume that they have to suggest longer formats even if
    they intend their talks to be 10′ or 20′.  We should change the
    wording on the CFP to ask them to only provide alternatives for
    shorter formats, not longer.
    -   Added a brief note to CFP.
-   It was hard to squeeze all the org/hyperbole talk on day-1.
    Generally, the people who submit these kinds of talk come from all
    over the world, and US mornings are more accommodating than US
    evenings when it comes to timezones.  We might consider having two org
    **mornings** rather than an org **day**; it would give us more flexibility
    with those talks.
    -   Let&rsquo;s see if we can do two streams again. That was fun.
-   We’re starting to reach critical mass on the org-talks.  We might want
    to consider splitting the org-talks and the dev-talks into two
    distinct events to allow them to grow independently.
    -   Let&rsquo;s see if we can do two streams again. That was fun.
-   We should associate time-of-day with CFP-deadline; otherwise, the
    scheduler has to be on edge until the very end of the day.  It’s worse
    this year because we made CFP-end coincide with speaker-notif, so this
    might not be as much of a problem next year.
    -   If we do rolling acceptances and we extend by at most one week
        instead of two, this should be fine.
-   It’s easier for us to extend beyond 5pm than to go before 9am
    (especially for the West coast).  Extending beyond 5pm puts strain on
    European organizers and volunteers, though.
    -   Time pressure should be alleviated with multiple streams.
-   Sometimes, ikiwiki on front0 took a lot of time to process the new
    commits.  sachac assumed this is due to a faulty regex parsing.  We
    should be able to find out more by looking at the logs from ikiwiki
    after a slow commit.
    -   Seems speedy at the moment.
-   Ask for preferred timezone in CFP
    -   Added to availability.
-   Check with John Wiegley re: schedule - we always happen to coincide
    with his work trips
    -   I checked with him and the people at his work don&rsquo;t have a schedule
        yet, so we should go ahead and plan

### Lessons learned for next year

-   Maybe incentivize proper timezone specification by saying we can translate times to their local time?
-   Make sure to include cfp.org as an attachment instead of inline

### Other thoughts

-   sachac: bandali likes having the commitment to freedom section in the CFP as a form of activism
-   sachac: I thought about pulling the deadline back to Sept 1, but it might be
    good to keep it at Sept 14 so that anyone who tends to work with the
    schoolyear can still have a little time to work on it.

We sent the speakers <https://emacsconf.org/2023/prepare/> in case
anyone wants to get started on their presentations.

There&rsquo;s one talk that&rsquo;s waiting for feedback on the emacsconf-submit

This time last year, we had 2 proposals, with most of the proposals
coming in at the end of the CFP. This was usually when we started
panicking about not having lots of proposals, but I think we can skip
stressing about it this year. <laugh> Even with the program as it is
now, we&rsquo;d already have a pretty fun EmacsConf. Can&rsquo;t wait to see what
it&rsquo;ll look like when more people get their proposals in!

bandali, maybe we can do a 1-month and/or 2-week reminder about the
CFP deadline? I&rsquo;d like to see if we can get away without officially
extending the CFP this time.

Schedule notes:

-   Legend: dashed line means non-BBB Q&A
-   Saturday on the General track: Org day
    -   [adventure](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/adventure "An Org-Mode based text adventure game for learning the basics of Emacs, inside Emacs, written in Emacs Lisp") is the first talk because of availability constraints; would be nice to connect it to [solo](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/solo "How I play TTRPGs in Emacs")
    -   [uni](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/uni "Authoring and presenting university courses with Emacs and a full libre software stack") for teaching, table for grading
    -   [taming](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/taming "Taming things with Org Mode") and [one](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/one "one.el: the static site generator for Emacs Lisp Programmers") both deal with exports in some way
    -   [writing](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/writing "Emacs turbo-charges my writing") is connected to [nabokov](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/nabokov "Why Nabokov would use Org-Mode if he were writing today")
    -   [solo](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/solo "How I play TTRPGs in Emacs") and [collab](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/collab "Collaborative data processing and documenting using org-babel") are amusing to pair together
-   Saturday morning Development track: large language models, AI. Has to be morning because of [matplotllm](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/matplotllm "MatplotLLM, iterative natural language data visualization in org-babel").
    [llm](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/llm "LLM clients in Emacs, functionality and standardization") is about general interfaces, so we can put that last.
-   Saturday afternoon, developer track: REPLs (+ woof because it&rsquo;s Org-related, so we can put it on Org day next to a non-live Q&A)
    [eval](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/eval "Editor Integrated REPL Driven Development for all languages") and [repl](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/repl "REPLs in strange places: Lua, LaTeX, LPeg, LPegRex, TikZ") are related
    -   if [woof](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/woof "Watch Over Our Folders") happens, it could be nice to have the Q&A go into Org devel brainstorming
-   Sunday morning: Hyperbole (gen track, then crossing over to dev for testing)
    -   morning because [test](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/test "What I learned by writing test cases for GNU Hyperbole") has to be in the morning; [hyperamp](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/hyperamp "Top 10 ways Hyperbole amps up Emacs") and [koutline](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/koutline "Using Koutline for stream of thought journaling") go before it, try to avoid conflicts so they can attend each other&rsquo;s talks
    -   Sunday morning after [test](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/test "What I learned by writing test cases for GNU Hyperbole") could be a fun extended &ldquo;let&rsquo;s write tests together&rdquo; session if someone wants to lead it
-   Sunday afternoon: community theme ([mentor](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/mentor "Mentoring VS-Coders as an Emacsian (or How to show not tell people about the wonders of Emacs)") to [sharing](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/sharing "Sharing Emacs is Caring Emacs: Emacs education and why I embraced video")), with an aside on [web](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/web "Emacs saves the Web") (using Emacs as a client for stuff). [sharing](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/sharing "Sharing Emacs is Caring Emacs: Emacs education and why I embraced video") is possible closing keynote - encourage people to go out and explore/share all year?
-   if the gray talks don&rsquo;t materialize or if talks get cancelled, we can have an open meetup possibly with breakout rooms
-   it would be nice to connect [poltys](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/poltys "The browser in a buffer") (talking to web browsers from Emacs) to [web](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/web "Emacs saves the Web") (doing web stuff in Emacs instead). [poltys](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/poltys "The browser in a buffer") needs to be in the morning (which is pretty full) and [web](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/web "Emacs saves the Web") is in the afternoon because Yuchen is in Australia/Sydney.
-   [cubing](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/cubing "Speedcubing in Emacs") and [steno](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/steno "Programming at 200 wpm") are both about doing things quickly, but [steno](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/steno "Programming at 200 wpm") can also be placed near [nabokov](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/nabokov "Why Nabokov would use Org-Mode if he were writing today") (writing and then editing, even if it might not be Org). [cubing](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/cubing "Speedcubing in Emacs") can be something fun to transition to lunch, then.
-   [parallel](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/parallel "Parallel Text Replacement: Does P = NP?") needs to go in the morning. Might be a general talk.
-   checking with [web](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/web "Emacs saves the Web") and [hn](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/hn "The many ways to browse Hacker News from Emacs") if ~3pm Sunday afternoon (~7am local time) is okay with them. It would be nice to pair it with [hn](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/hn "The many ways to browse Hacker News from Emacs"), which is nice to pair with [mentor](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/mentor "Mentoring VS-Coders as an Emacsian (or How to show not tell people about the wonders of Emacs)"), but maybe I can swap it with [emms](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/emms "Emacs MultiMedia System (EMMS)") and [devel](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/devel "Emacs development updates") if needed.
-   coordination notes:
    -   TODO [repl](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/repl "REPLs in strange places: Lua, LaTeX, LPeg, LPegRex, TikZ"), [eval](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/eval "Editor Integrated REPL Driven Development for all languages")
    -   [hyperamp](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/hyperamp "Top 10 ways Hyperbole amps up Emacs"), [koutline](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/koutline "Using Koutline for stream of thought journaling"), and [test](https://emacsconf.org/2023/talks/test "What I learned by writing test cases for GNU Hyperbole") are all in touch because they work on Hyperbole together
