-Greetings, fellow Emacsians!
-
-On behalf of the EmacsConf 2022 organizers team, I&rsquo;m very excited to
-announce the schedule for EmacsConf 2022 (Dec 3 and 4), available at:
-
-<https://emacsconf.org/2022/talks>
-
-All of the times listed on the schedule are in EST (UTC-5). You can
-click on each talk&rsquo;s title to open its page for more information,
-including its scheduled time in your local time. (Displaying local time
-requires running a tiny bit of AGPLv3+-licensed free/libre JavaScript
-code, included on the talk pages.)
-
-For prerecorded talks, this time is also when the talk&rsquo;s video will be
-made available on the same page. Please note that the times are
-approximations, and that the schedule may change leading up to the
-conference.
-
-As the conference approaches, we&rsquo;ll post more details on how to watch
-and participate.
-
-You can subscribe to the emacsconf-discuss mailing list at
-<https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacsconf-discuss> to
-be sure you&rsquo;ll get updates.
-
-Want to help make EmacsConf even awesomer? Volunteer!
-<https://emacsconf.org/2022/volunteer/>
-
-We hope to see you all around on Dec 3-4 for EmacsConf 2022!
-
-P.S. please direct all replies to this post either to myself or to the
-emacsconf-discuss list, so as to help avoid generating extra off-topic
-chatter in the other lists cc&rsquo;d in this message; thank you.

+Greetings, fellow Emacsians!
+
+On behalf of the EmacsConf 2022 organizers team, I&rsquo;m very excited to
+announce the schedule for EmacsConf 2022 (Dec 3 and 4), available at:
+
+<https://emacsconf.org/2022/talks>
+
+All of the times listed on the schedule are in EST (UTC-5). You can
+click on each talk&rsquo;s title to open its page for more information,
+including its scheduled time in your local time. (Displaying local time
+requires running a tiny bit of AGPLv3+-licensed free/libre JavaScript
+code, included on the talk pages.)
+
+For prerecorded talks, this time is also when the talk&rsquo;s video will be
+made available on the same page. Please note that the times are
+approximations, and that the schedule may change leading up to the
+conference.
+
+As the conference approaches, we&rsquo;ll post more details on how to watch
+and participate.
+
+You can subscribe to the emacsconf-discuss mailing list at
+<https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacsconf-discuss> to
+be sure you&rsquo;ll get updates.
+
+Want to help make EmacsConf even awesomer? Volunteer!
+<https://emacsconf.org/2022/volunteer/>
+
+We hope to see you all around on Dec 3-4 for EmacsConf 2022!
+
+P.S. please direct all replies to this post either to myself or to the
+emacsconf-discuss list, so as to help avoid generating extra off-topic
+chatter in the other lists cc&rsquo;d in this message; thank you.
