+The Etherpad for general EmacsConf discussions is at
+<https://pad.emacsconf.org/2022>. 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.
