these specific time stamps so please

the day as things things get updated

00:02:18.400 --> 00:02:20.400
we'll start off with some user stories

00:02:20.400 --> 00:02:22.000
and uh and then we'll dive

00:02:22.000 --> 00:02:24.400
right into how Emacs can be used for

00:02:24.400 --> 00:02:26.080
lots of different things

00:02:26.080 --> 00:02:28.000
uh emax configuration of course is a

00:02:28.000 --> 00:02:29.840
huge part of using Emacs like a tinker

00:02:29.840 --> 00:02:31.120
with it and so we've got a couple of

00:02:31.120 --> 00:02:31.760
talks

00:02:31.760 --> 00:02:35.040
about that in the afternoon it's a lot

00:02:35.040 --> 00:02:36.160
of org talks

00:02:36.160 --> 00:02:39.280
so if if you're into org

00:02:39.280 --> 00:02:40.879
the whole afternoon you've got these

00:02:40.879 --> 00:02:43.040
things to play with next day

00:02:43.040 --> 00:02:44.800
so sunday we have a lot of development

00:02:44.800 --> 00:02:46.239
oriented talks we have

00:02:46.239 --> 00:02:48.400
a development update from john weekly

00:02:48.400 --> 00:02:50.480
and a number of talks about Emacs list

00:02:50.480 --> 00:02:52.640
or packages that that help you with

00:02:52.640 --> 00:02:54.160
working with code

00:02:54.160 --> 00:02:56.239
you also have some talks that need to be

00:02:56.239 --> 00:02:57.920
moved to the second day for

00:02:57.920 --> 00:03:00.000
uh for scheduling reasons but overall

00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:01.680
the second day is mostly about

00:03:01.680 --> 00:03:03.040
development

00:03:03.040 --> 00:03:05.599
no matter what uh what uh you're

00:03:05.599 --> 00:03:06.879
interested in I hope you'll find

00:03:06.879 --> 00:03:07.360
something

00:03:07.360 --> 00:03:11.760
in the schedule for you

00:03:11.760 --> 00:03:13.760
and then how do you actually participate

00:03:13.760 --> 00:03:15.200
how do you actually watch and

00:03:15.200 --> 00:03:16.720
ask questions and all of that let's turn

00:03:16.720 --> 00:03:18.319
it over to leo

00:03:18.319 --> 00:03:19.920
sure so hi there everyone it's a

00:03:19.920 --> 00:03:21.280
pleasure to meet you all I'm really

00:03:21.280 --> 00:03:23.040
happy to be part of the team this year

00:03:23.040 --> 00:03:25.280
so uh this year we've decided to change

00:03:25.280 --> 00:03:26.159
things a little

00:03:26.159 --> 00:03:28.799
uh compared to what we did last year so

00:03:28.799 --> 00:03:29.440
um

00:03:29.440 --> 00:03:31.519
everything is on the link that will

00:03:31.519 --> 00:03:32.480
pre-paste

00:03:32.480 --> 00:03:34.400
in the chat right now but to participate

00:03:34.400 --> 00:03:36.560
I suppose if you're hearing us right now

00:03:36.560 --> 00:03:38.480
you found the link to follow us which is

00:03:38.480 --> 00:03:43.120
very good so it's live.emacsconf.org

00:03:43.120 --> 00:03:46.080
for the questions uh we use a pad where

00:03:46.080 --> 00:03:47.200
you can both

00:03:47.200 --> 00:03:48.959
add your questions and if you feel like

00:03:48.959 --> 00:03:50.480
adding notes as well you know you are

00:03:50.480 --> 00:03:51.920
completely free to do so

00:03:51.920 --> 00:03:54.480
I believe you already have 42 people

00:03:54.480 --> 00:03:56.319
which are on there so

00:03:56.319 --> 00:03:58.239
if someone one of the other organizers

00:03:58.239 --> 00:03:59.680
could paste the link there that would be

00:03:59.680 --> 00:04:00.799
splendid

00:04:00.799 --> 00:04:02.959
uh for chatting with us or with the

00:04:02.959 --> 00:04:04.640
other people attending the conference

00:04:04.640 --> 00:04:07.920
we are using isc and there are three

00:04:07.920 --> 00:04:09.599
channels that you need to pay attention

00:04:09.599 --> 00:04:10.959
to the first one

00:04:10.959 --> 00:04:13.120
is #emacsconf where the general

00:04:13.120 --> 00:04:14.239
discussion will be

00:04:14.239 --> 00:04:16.560
happening so if you have any reactions

00:04:16.560 --> 00:04:18.000
to what you're hearing if you are

00:04:18.000 --> 00:04:19.199
excited about

00:04:19.199 --> 00:04:20.400
the new things you've discovered you

00:04:20.400 --> 00:04:22.400
know that's the channel to be using

00:04:22.400 --> 00:04:25.440
we also have #emacsconf-accessible

00:04:25.440 --> 00:04:27.520
which is community-run and it's for

00:04:27.520 --> 00:04:28.960
people who

00:04:28.960 --> 00:04:30.320
you know if you want to volunteer and

00:04:30.320 --> 00:04:32.400
describe to uh

00:04:32.400 --> 00:04:33.680
people what is going on during the

00:04:33.680 --> 00:04:34.960
conference either because they can't

00:04:34.960 --> 00:04:36.479
hear because they can't see you know

00:04:36.479 --> 00:04:38.240
feel free to do so that would be a nice

00:04:38.240 --> 00:04:40.720
help to us and for the speakers more

00:04:40.720 --> 00:04:42.960
specifically if you have

00:04:42.960 --> 00:04:44.800
any problem whatsoever or if you need to

00:04:44.800 --> 00:04:46.320
check something with us

00:04:46.320 --> 00:04:49.680
we will be in iEmacsConff.org and

try to take care of your problem as soon

00:04:54.000 --> 00:04:55.360
as possible

00:04:55.360 --> 00:04:58.160

if you want to continue the discussion

00:05:05.120 --> 00:05:07.840
basically we invite you to use

00:05:07.840 --> 00:05:09.360
jitsi to be able to continue the

00:05:09.360 --> 00:05:11.280
discussion either with the speaker if

00:05:11.280 --> 00:05:12.720
the speaker is willing to do so

00:05:12.720 --> 00:05:14.400
or just with the community of users and

00:05:14.400 --> 00:05:15.759
for that will leave you

00:05:15.759 --> 00:05:18.880

the webcam placement on this laptop is

00:05:39.600 --> 00:05:40.400
very weird
