We would love +it if EmacsConf 2020 could highlight interesting perspectives and +reflect the diversity of our community. If you know someone who might +have a good idea for a talk, please reach out to them and encourage +them to submit a proposal. Many people (especially from +underrepresented groups such as women, people of colour, and +non-developers) might not consider themselves expert enough to share +their thoughts. If you let them know that you value their knowledge +and maybe even suggest something that you think others would like to +hear more about, they may realize that they have something worth +sharing and that we would love to hear from them. + +This year, we are experimenting with an anonymized submission process. +Identifying information will be removed from submissions by a +conference organizer who will not participate in talk selection. The +anonymized submissions will then be reviewed by a selection committee. +We hope this will help reduce bias and encourage contribution. We +look forward to hearing from you (and the people you want to nudge to +speak)! -- cgit v1.2.3
