+## Notes for participants
+
+- You can ask questions via the text chat or by voice. Voice and webcam are totally optional.
+- Please stay muted until it's your turn.
+- To raise your hand:
+  1. Open the participant list. If it's hidden, use the person icon in the top left.
+  2. Click on your name.
+  3. Click on **Set Status** - **Raise**.
+  You can lower your hand by clicking on your name and choosing **Clear Status**.
+- Headphone or earphones can help avoid audio feedback.
+- If performance is slow, please keep your webcam off.
+- The recording of this session will be posted on the talk page. We'll
+  also copy questions, answers, and notes from the text chat.
+  Everything will be shared under the Creative Commons
+  Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 License.
+- If you can, please add questions, answers, and notes to the
+  Etherpad. The URL for the Etherpad is on the talk page.
+- Please follow <https://emacsconf.org/conduct> guidelines.
+- If something should be omitted from the recording, put a NOTE in the
+  chat and explain what the organizers should do.
+  
+## Notes for the speaker
+
+- You can answer questions in whatever order you want.
+- You can skip questions or take your time to think about them.
+- Please read the questions out loud before answering. This makes it
+  easier to save the questions and answers afterwards.
+- We'll let you know when the stream is going to move on to the next
+  talk. Even after the streamer switches over to the next talk, you
+  can still stay and chat here for as long as you like. When you're
+  done, you can wrap up and leave.
+- If something should be omitted from the recording, put a NOTE in the
+  chat and explain what the organizers should do.
+
+# IRC
+
+- If you add "Q: " as a prefix when asking a question (ex: "Q: Could you please give more details on ..."), it will be easier for us to notice your question.
+- If you are discussing a previous talk after the next talk starts, you may want to add the talk ID to your message to make it clearer. (ex: "re:devel I think ...")

+EmacsConf 2023 will be on Dec 2 (Sat) and Dec 3 (Sun), 2023 from
+9am-5pm Toronto/EST time (US/Eastern); equivalently, 6am-3pm PST,
+2pm-10pm UTC, 3pm-11pm Zurich/CET, 7:30pm-4:30am(next-day) India/IST,
+10pm-6am GMT+8.
+
+You can view streams using the watch pages or in a streaming web
+player such as [MPV](https://mpv.io). If you need to reverse the video
+for easier viewing (ex: turning dark mode into light mode), try a
+command like `mpv --vf=negate URL`.
+
+If you experience any disruptions (including weird audio), try waiting
+a minute or two and then reloading the page you're using to watch the
+video. If that still doesn't work, please check our status page at
+<https://status.emacsconf.org> for updates on the status of various
+parts of our infrastructure, and instructions on how to get in touch
+with us about disruptions.
+
+<!-- If you prefer, you can watch the livestream via Toobnix (a PeerTube
+instance): [General
+track](https://toobnix.org/w/7t9X8eXuSby8YpyEKTb4aj), [Development
+track](https://toobnix.org/w/w6K77y3bNMo8xsNuqQeCcD).  Pre-recorded
+videos and replays will also be available on Toobnix in the [EmacsConf
+channel](https://toobnix.org/c/emacsconf). -->
+
+To participate in the Q&A, please check the [[talks]] index for a link
+to the talk page, and [[read these Q&A tips|qa]]. The talk page will
+have the Q&A details, including the Etherpad link, IRC channel, and
+optionally a BigBlueButton room (BBB) for Q&A. If you plan to
+participate in Q&A in the BigBlueButton room, please use headphones or
+earphones in order to minimize audio feedback. The link on the talk
+page will take you to a waiting room that will automatically refresh
+when the host has opened the Q&A.
+
+The Etherpad for general EmacsConf discussions is at
+<https://pad.emacsconf.org/2023>. The schedule and the talk pages link
+to the Etherpads for the specific talk. Please feel free to add notes
+and questions to the Etherpad.
+
+Here are the irc.libera.chat IRC channels that we'll be using this year:
+
+- \#emacsconf-gen: discussion for the General track
+- \#emacsconf-dev: discussion for the development track
+- \#emacsconf: hallway conversations, other general conversations
+- \#emacsconf-org: if you need to get in touch with the organizers
+
+You can use the `/JOIN` command in an IRC client (ex:
+chat.emacsconf.org) to join a different channel. Ex: `/join #emacsconf-org`
+if you want to talk to the organizers.
+
+Pre-recorded talk videos will be available on the talk pages after the
+talks go live, and other videos (including Q&A) will also be added to
+the talk pages once we process them.
+
+**Accessibility:** Pre-recorded talks will be streamed with open
+captions, and the transcripts will be posted to the talk pages as
+well. If you have any accessibility requests, please join the
+[#emacsconf-org](https://chat.emacsconf.org/?join=emacsconf-org) and
+let us know, or e-mail <emacsconf-org-private@gnu.org> to reach the
+organizers.
