+Hi, ${speakers-short}!
+
+${prerec-note}Here are the instructions for uploading the video${plural} for your talk${plural}.
+You can find the latest version of the instructions at https://emacsconf.org/2022/upload/ .
+There are two ways to upload your talk${plural} this year:
+
+- Web-based: <https://ftp-upload.emacsconf.org> , password emacsconf
+- FTP: host: ftp-upload.emacsconf.org, port: 21, username: anonymous, folder: upload-here
+
+If you upload slides and other resources, we can include them on the
+talk page when your talk goes live. If you happen to have a script,
+please include that as well. We can use it to help with captions.
+
+Please start your filenames with the ID for the talk that it&rsquo;s for:
+${slugs}.
+
+If you&rsquo;re still working on your talk, you might find the tips at <https://emacsconf.org/2022/prepare> useful. In brief:
+
+- at least 1280x720 resolution
+- we recommend light text on a dark background, with enough contrast to make it easy to read
+- if possible, use a headset or external microphone to record your audio
+- if you can leave 5 seconds of quiet (just background noise) at the end of the video, we can try to use that for noise reduction
+
+Please plan to upload your talk by November 4 (next Friday) so that we
+can get started preparing it for streaming. If you can&rsquo;t make it by
+then, we can accept later submissions, although it&rsquo;s a bit more of a
+scramble and our stress levels go up as the conference approaches. =)
+We&rsquo;d really appreciate the extra time for captioning and
+double-checking. Thank you for your help in getting ready for a smooth
+EmacsConf 2022!
+
