+
+****** 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.
+
+****** Speaker release
+
+ By submitting this proposal, I agree that my presentation at EmacsConf
+ 2020 is subject to the following terms and conditions:
+
+ The EmacsConf organizers may capture audio and video (a "Recording")
+ of my presentation and any associated materials, which may include
+ slides, notes, transcripts, and prerecording(s) of my presentation
+ that I provide to the EmacsConf organizers.
+
+ I authorize the EmacsConf organizers to distribute, reproduce,
+ publicly display, and prepare derivative works of the Recording and
+ any derivative works of the Recording (the "Licensed Materials") under
+ the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0
+ International (CC BY-SA 4.0) license.

+ likeness, and biographic information in association with their use of
+ the Licensed Materials under the above license.

-***** 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.
-
-***** Speaker release
-
-By submitting this proposal, I agree that my presentation at EmacsConf
-2020 is subject to the following terms and conditions:
-
-The EmacsConf organizers may capture audio and video (a "Recording")
-of my presentation and any associated materials, which may include
-slides, notes, transcripts, and prerecording(s) of my presentation
-that I provide to the EmacsConf organizers.
-
-I authorize the EmacsConf organizers to distribute, reproduce,
-publicly display, and prepare derivative works of the Recording and
-any derivative works of the Recording (the "Licensed Materials") under

-I grant to the EmacsConf organizers permission to use my name,
-likeness, and biographic information in association with their use of
-the Licensed Materials under the above license.
-
-I represent that I have the authority to grant the above license to
