+Hello, folks! Here&rsquo;s the weekly update on what&rsquo;s happening backstage
+for EmacsConf 2022 in case you notice something that you want to help
+out with. =)
+
+- We&rsquo;ve e-mailed the speakers instructions for uploading their files through either a web browser or an FTP client, and three speakers have already done so! Those talks are now available in the backstage area (<https://media.emacsconf.org/2022/backstage/>), along with the first set of edited captions (thanks Jai Vetrivelan!). If you don&rsquo;t have the username and password for the backstage area and you would like to access it, please e-mail me and I&rsquo;ll send you the details.
+- We&rsquo;ve created a BBB room for each speaker&rsquo;s live Q&A session. The URLs are in conf.org in the private repository if you need them.
+- We&rsquo;ve drafted some documentation for different volunteer roles. If you&rsquo;d like to volunteer as a captioner, check-in person (hmm, reception?), Etherpad scribe, IRC monitor, or host, please check out the appropriate link and let me know if I need to add anything to the docs:
+ - <https://emacsconf.org/2022/volunteer/caption>
+ - <https://emacsconf.org/2022/volunteer/irc>
+ - <https://emacsconf.org/2022/volunteer/pad>
+ - <https://emacsconf.org/2022/volunteer/checkin>
+ - <https://emacsconf.org/2022/volunteer/host>
+- Thanks to David O&rsquo;Toole for signing up for some IRC shifts! If you would like to volunteer for a shift, check out <https://emacsconf.org/2022/organizers-notebook/#shifts> .
+- We&rsquo;ve updated our streaming configuration for the General and Development tracks, and have started testing them using mpv and the watch pages. Videos aren&rsquo;t currently streaming, but you can check out the layout of the watch pages at:
+
+ - <https://emacsconf.org/2022/watch/gen/>
+ - <https://live.emacsconf.org/2022/watch/gen/>
+ - <https://emacsconf.org/2022/watch/dev/>
+ - <https://live.emacsconf.org/2022/watch/dev/>
+
+ These pages could probably be a lot prettier and easier to use. If you have some ideas for improving them or if you&rsquo;d like to work on the HTML/CSS/JS, we&rsquo;d love your help!
+- There are now Q&A waiting rooms with friendly URLs so that it&rsquo;s easier for people to join the live Q&A when the host decides it&rsquo;s okay to let everyone in. They&rsquo;re linked on the watch pages (along with the pads) and they&rsquo;ll be linked from the talk pages once we&rsquo;re ready to share them.
+- zaeph has been busy tweaking the ffmpeg workflow for reencoding and normalizing videos. Thanks to Ry P. for sharing the res.emacsconf.org server with us - we&rsquo;ve been using it for all the processing that our laptops can&rsquo;t handle.
+- We experimented with using the OpenAI Whisper speech-to-text toolkit to create the auto-generated captions that captioning volunteers can edit. Looks promising! If you&rsquo;d like to compare the performance between small, medium, and large models, you can look at the VTT files for the sqlite talk in the backstage area. I&rsquo;ve also added support for tab-separated values (like Audacity label exports) and a subed-convert command to subed.el, which might give us a more concise format to work with. I&rsquo;ll work on getting word-level timing data so that our captioning workflow can be even easier.
+
+Next week, we hope to:
+
+- improve the prerec and captioning workflows
+- get more captions underway
+
+Lots of good stuff happening!
