-Hello, EmacsConf volunteers!
-
-We're starting to gear up for EmacsConf ${year} and we would love your help!
-
-- https://emacsconf.org/${year}/organizers-notebook/#overall has an
- overall prioritization matrix. If any of those options look like
- something you want to learn or help with, you can volunteer to help
- move the needle.
-- Given the number of talks this year, we're going to try to see if we
- can pull off two tracks. I've posted a draft schedule at
- https://emacsconf.org/2022/draft-schedule/ and have e-mailed
- speakers to confirm their availability. This schedule staggers live
- Q&A sessions so that the person managing the streams can jump back
- and forth as needed. [[#shifts][Want to volunteer for a shift?]]
-
-Help wanted / upcoming projects:
-
-- Emacs Lisp: Want to design the screens that will be displayed before
- and after a talk? Bonus points if you can do it in Emacs with a
- count-down timer until the start of the talk. See [[#intro]]
-
-- Infrastructure - file upload: We would like to find a way for people
- to upload large files through a web-based interface, since a number
- of speakers had issues with FTP uploads last year. [[#upload][#upload]] has some
- options to explore. Do you have any recommendations or do you want
- to do some research?
-
-- Infrastructure - streaming: Got any experience streaming with OBS or
- gstreamer? We're going to try to have two (or more!) streams this
- year, so it would be great to have more streamers on board.
- Definitely let us know if you have any experience using a cloud
- server to stream, or if you'd like to help figure it out (see
- [[#streaming][#streaming]]). It would be neat to have the streaming come from a VPS
- that different people can control.
