+WEBVTT captioned by sachac, checked by sachac
+
+00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.558
+Welcome to EmacsConf 2023, where we get to find out
+
+00:00:04.559 --> 00:00:07.697
+just how much we can do with a text editor.
+
+00:00:07.698 --> 00:00:10.316
+Just like last year, we have two tracks.
+
+00:00:10.317 --> 00:00:12.655
+There's a General track and a Development track,
+
+00:00:12.656 --> 00:00:14.234
+but really, you'll probably find
+
+00:00:14.235 --> 00:00:15.953
+interesting things on both tracks
+
+00:00:15.954 --> 00:00:18.492
+no matter what your level of experience is,
+
+00:00:18.493 --> 00:00:21.151
+so don't feel limited to one or the other.
+
+00:00:21.152 --> 00:00:24.710
+For Saturday, it's mostly Org Mode talks on the General track.
+
+00:00:24.711 --> 00:00:26.869
+The doc talk on the development track
+
+00:00:26.870 --> 00:00:30.128
+is about literate documentation with Emacs and Org Mode,
+
+00:00:30.129 --> 00:00:31.687
+and it's a general-audience talk
+
+00:00:31.688 --> 00:00:33.606
+even though it's in the Development track.
+
+00:00:33.607 --> 00:00:35.265
+I just ran out of space in the schedule.
+
+00:00:35.266 --> 00:00:38.504
+The best parts of EmacsConf are the conversations.
+
+00:00:38.505 --> 00:00:41.263
+The wiki has a page on how to watch and participate,
+
+00:00:41.264 --> 00:00:44.042
+and I'll give you a quick overview as well.
+
+00:00:44.043 --> 00:00:47.521
+You can watch both streams at live.emacsconf.org
+
+00:00:47.522 --> 00:00:50.400
+using free and open source software.
+
+00:00:50.401 --> 00:00:52.819
+Using a streaming media player like mpv
+
+00:00:52.820 --> 00:00:56.218
+seems to be the best way to watch in terms of performance
+
+00:00:56.219 --> 00:00:57.817
+but there are also web-based players
+
+00:00:57.818 --> 00:01:00.296
+just in case that's all you've got.
+
+00:01:00.297 --> 00:01:02.295
+The schedule shows the General track on top
+
+00:01:02.296 --> 00:01:03.974
+and the Development track on the bottom,
+
+00:01:03.975 --> 00:01:06.593
+so you can see what else is going on.
+
+00:01:06.594 --> 00:01:07.792
+As you're watching the talks,
+
+00:01:07.793 --> 00:01:10.691
+you can refer to the schedule in another window.
+
+00:01:10.692 --> 00:01:13.710
+Hover over the boxes to see the times and titles,
+
+00:01:13.711 --> 00:01:15.609
+and click on the boxes in the schedule
+
+00:01:15.610 --> 00:01:18.388
+to jump to the talk's page for more details.
+
+00:01:18.389 --> 00:01:20.927
+You can also get the schedule as an iCalendar file
+
+00:01:20.928 --> 00:01:23.186
+or as an Org file in different time zones.
+
+00:01:23.187 --> 00:01:24.685
+Many talks will be followed by
+
+00:01:24.686 --> 00:01:27.344
+live Q&A web conferences with the speaker,
+
+00:01:27.345 --> 00:01:30.423
+which will be done in BigBlueButton or BBB.
+
+00:01:30.424 --> 00:01:33.422
+These are indicated with a solid border on the schedule
+
+00:01:33.423 --> 00:01:36.581
+and by Q&A: BBB on the schedule page.
+
+00:01:36.582 --> 00:01:38.280
+You can join the web conference room
+
+00:01:38.281 --> 00:01:39.899
+by clicking on the BBB link
+
+00:01:39.900 --> 00:01:42.838
+on the schedule page or the talk's webpage.
+
+00:01:42.839 --> 00:01:45.757
+Then you can ask your questions yourself when the Q&A starts.
+
+00:01:45.758 --> 00:01:48.216
+To improve performance, please keep your webcam off
+
+00:01:48.217 --> 00:01:50.955
+and stay muted until it's your turn to talk.
+
+00:01:50.956 --> 00:01:53.574
+This year we're experimenting with automatically switching
+
+00:01:53.575 --> 00:01:55.933
+between talks and Q&A sessions,
+
+00:01:55.934 --> 00:01:59.132
+so the transitions on the stream might be a little sudden,
+
+00:01:59.133 --> 00:02:00.891
+but people in the BigBlueButton room
+
+00:02:00.892 --> 00:02:02.570
+can continue the conversation
+
+00:02:02.571 --> 00:02:05.409
+even after the talk moves off-stream.
+
+00:02:05.410 --> 00:02:08.768
+Other talks will have Q&A via Etherpad or IRC,
+
+00:02:08.769 --> 00:02:11.087
+depending on what the speakers prefer.
+
+00:02:11.088 --> 00:02:14.106
+This is indicated in the schedule with a dashed border
+
+00:02:14.107 --> 00:02:16.825
+and on the schedule page as well.
+
+00:02:16.826 --> 00:02:19.264
+Please ask your questions in the recommended places
+
+00:02:19.265 --> 00:02:21.783
+so that the speakers can easily see them.
+
+00:02:21.784 --> 00:02:24.502
+Some talks will have the Q&A after the event,
+
+00:02:24.503 --> 00:02:27.361
+so you can add your questions to their Etherpad.
+
+00:02:27.362 --> 00:02:29.460
+We'll e-mail the speakers afterwards
+
+00:02:29.461 --> 00:02:32.359
+and update the talk pages when they answer.
+
+00:02:32.360 --> 00:02:35.498
+The schedule pages and track pages have quick shortcuts
+
+00:02:35.499 --> 00:02:38.977
+so that you can find out more about talks, open the Etherpads,
+
+00:02:38.978 --> 00:02:42.536
+and join the Q&A sessions. The watch page has more tips
+
+00:02:42.537 --> 00:02:45.235
+on how to make the most of Q&A.
+
+00:02:45.236 --> 00:02:48.014
+If you can, please add notes and ask questions
+
+00:02:48.015 --> 00:02:51.173
+in the Etherpad for the talk. That makes it easier
+
+00:02:51.174 --> 00:02:52.832
+for everyone to share their notes,
+
+00:02:52.833 --> 00:02:55.771
+and speakers and hosts can read the questions from there.
+
+00:02:55.772 --> 00:02:59.790
+We'll copy the notes to the talk pages afterwards.
+
+00:02:59.791 --> 00:03:01.849
+We have one pad for each talk,
+
+00:03:01.850 --> 00:03:03.968
+so you can follow the links to get to the next one
+
+00:03:03.969 --> 00:03:07.127
+or go back to the schedule and get the link from there.
+
+00:03:07.128 --> 00:03:08.766
+If you have general feedback about
+
+00:03:08.767 --> 00:03:10.925
+the conference itself, please put it in
+
+00:03:10.926 --> 00:03:16.384
+pad.emacsconf.org/2023 , which is linked on each pad.
+
+00:03:16.385 --> 00:03:19.043
+You can also use this as a general community message board
+
+00:03:19.044 --> 00:03:22.182
+for things like Help Wanted.
+
+00:03:22.183 --> 00:03:25.319
+Internet Relay Chat or IRC can be another great way
+
+00:03:25.320 --> 00:03:27.960
+to be part of lots of conversations.
+
+00:03:27.961 --> 00:03:31.679
+You can use chat.emacsconf.org to join the IRC channels
+
+00:03:31.680 --> 00:03:34.518
+through your web browser. The tabs on the left can help you
+
+00:03:34.519 --> 00:03:37.077
+switch between the different channels.
+
+00:03:37.078 --> 00:03:40.339
+There's #emacsconf-gen for the General track
+
+00:03:40.340 --> 00:03:43.695
+and #emacsconf-dev for the Development track.
+
+00:03:43.696 --> 00:03:47.414
+If you need to reach us, you can join #emacsconf-org
+
+00:03:47.415 --> 00:03:52.393
+or e-mail emacsconf-org-private@gnu.org.
+
+00:03:52.394 --> 00:03:55.672
+You can use #emacsconf for hallway conversations.
+
+00:03:55.673 --> 00:03:57.791
+Of course, you can join any of these channels
+
+00:03:57.792 --> 00:04:00.070
+with your favourite IRC client.
+
+00:04:00.071 --> 00:04:03.909
+We're on the libera.chat network.
+
+00:04:03.910 --> 00:04:06.548
+Once again, we're going to be streaming with open captions
+
+00:04:06.549 --> 00:04:09.627
+for most of the talks this year, thanks to our speakers and
+
+00:04:09.628 --> 00:04:12.986
+captioning volunteers. The captioned talks are indicated
+
+00:04:12.987 --> 00:04:15.705
+on the schedule, and with any luck, we'll be posting
+
+00:04:15.706 --> 00:04:19.204
+transcripts on talk pages shortly after the talks start.
+
+00:04:19.205 --> 00:04:21.023
+If you need additional accommodations,
+
+00:04:21.024 --> 00:04:23.783
+please let us know in #emacsconf-org
+
+00:04:23.784 --> 00:04:25.682
+and we'll see if we can make things happen.
+
+00:04:25.683 --> 00:04:29.921
+If something goes down, we'll update status.emacsconf.org.
+
+00:04:29.922 --> 00:04:31.780
+If it doesn't look like we've noticed yet,
+
+00:04:31.781 --> 00:04:35.219
+please let us know in the #emacsconf-org IRC channel,
+
+00:04:35.220 --> 00:04:37.378
+where we will be quietly panicking.
+
+00:04:37.379 --> 00:04:40.077
+In all of these conversations, please keep in mind
+
+00:04:40.078 --> 00:04:43.076
+our guidelines for conduct. You can find them on the wiki,
+
+00:04:43.077 --> 00:04:46.556
+They basically boil down to: please be nice.
+
+00:04:46.557 --> 00:04:48.995
+If all goes well, the prerecorded talks and transcripts
+
+00:04:48.996 --> 00:04:50.994
+should be available from the talk pages
+
+00:04:50.995 --> 00:04:52.733
+shortly after they start playing,
+
+00:04:52.734 --> 00:04:54.632
+and we'll post the recordings of live talks
+
+00:04:54.633 --> 00:04:57.751
+and Q&A sessions within the next month or so.
+
+00:04:57.752 --> 00:05:00.270
+If you'd like to get an update, you can subscribe to
+
+00:05:00.271 --> 00:05:03.569
+the emacsconf-discuss mailing list.
+
+00:05:03.570 --> 00:05:05.128
+All right, let's get going.
+
+00:05:05.129 --> 00:05:07.528
+Leo Vivier is hosting the general track,
+
+00:05:07.529 --> 00:05:10.647
+and Amin Bandali hosting the development track.
+
+00:05:10.648 --> 00:05:13.366
+The other volunteers and I will run around mostly backstage,
+
+00:05:13.367 --> 00:05:15.445
+and you'll probably meet us in the closing remarks.
+
+00:05:15.446 --> 00:05:17.084
+That's also where we get to thank
+
+00:05:17.085 --> 00:05:18.723
+all the people and organizations
+
+00:05:18.724 --> 00:05:21.762
+who make EmacsConf even possible.
+
+00:05:21.763 --> 00:05:24.637
+Thanks for coming to EmacsConf 2023.
