NOTE [[file:/home/sacha/screenshots/Screenshot_2022-12-03_00-29-06.png]] 00:00:14.120 --> 00:00:16.119 There's a General track and a Development track, 00:00:16.120 --> 00:00:17.959 but really, you'll probably find 00:00:17.960 --> 00:00:19.599 interesting things on both tracks 00:00:19.600 --> 00:00:22.159 no matter what your level of experience is, 00:00:22.160 --> 00:00:25.079 so don't feel limited to one or the other. 00:00:25.080 --> 00:00:26.999 If we all figure out this track thing together, 00:00:27.000 --> 00:00:29.879 that could mean being able to have even more Emacs talks 00:00:29.880 --> 00:00:32.839 next year, so let's give it a try! NOTE Conversations [[file:/home/sacha/screenshots/Screenshot_2022-12-03_00-22-47.png]] 00:00:32.840 --> 00:00:35.719 The best parts of EmacsConf are the conversations. 00:00:35.720 --> 00:00:38.279 The wiki has a page on how to watch and participate, 00:00:38.280 --> 00:00:40.839 and I'll give you a quick overview as well. NOTE [[file:/home/sacha/screenshots/Screenshot_2022-12-03_00-23-52.png]] 00:00:40.840 --> 00:00:43.999 You can watch both streams at live.emacsconf.org 00:00:44.000 --> 00:00:46.279 using free and open source software. NOTE [[file:/home/sacha/screenshots/Screenshot_2022-12-03_01-00-29.png]] 00:00:46.280 --> 00:00:48.199 The schedule shows the General track on top 00:00:48.200 --> 00:00:49.959 and the Development track on the bottom, 00:00:49.960 --> 00:00:52.159 so you can see what else is going on. NOTE [[file:/home/sacha/screenshots/Screenshot_2022-12-03_00-24-24.png]] 00:00:52.160 --> 00:00:54.559 The track pages have quick shortcuts so that you can 00:00:54.560 --> 00:00:57.359 find out more about talks, open the Etherpads, 00:00:57.360 --> 00:01:00.799 and join the Q&A sessions. The watch page has more tips 00:01:00.800 --> 00:01:02.119 on how to make the most of Q&A. NOTE Etherpad [[file:/home/sacha/screenshots/Screenshot_2022-12-03_00-24-44.png]] 00:01:02.120 --> 00:01:05.759 If you can, please add notes and ask questions 00:01:05.760 --> 00:01:08.519 in the Etherpad for the talk. That makes it easier 00:01:08.520 --> 00:01:10.079 for everyone to share their notes, 00:01:10.080 --> 00:01:13.119 and speakers and hosts can read the questions from there. 00:01:13.120 --> 00:01:16.039 We'll copy the notes to the talk pages afterwards. NOTE [[file:/home/sacha/screenshots/Screenshot_2022-12-03_00-25-06.png]] 00:01:16.040 --> 00:01:18.319 We have one pad for each talk this year, 00:01:18.320 --> 00:01:20.919 so you can follow the links to get to the next one 00:01:20.920 --> 00:01:23.959 or go back to the schedule and get the link from there. NOTE [[file:/home/sacha/screenshots/Screenshot_2022-12-03_00-25-27.png]] 00:01:23.960 --> 00:01:25.599 If you have general feedback about 00:01:25.600 --> 00:01:27.759 the conference itself, please put it in 00:01:27.760 --> 00:01:30.679 pad.emacsconf.org/2022 .

NOTE [[file:/home/sacha/screenshots/Screenshot_2022-12-03_00-26-04.png]] 00:01:37.280 --> 00:01:40.319 You can use chat.emacsconf.org to join the IRC channels 00:01:40.320 --> 00:01:43.199 through your web browser.

NOTE Accessibility and open captions [[file:/home/sacha/screenshots/Screenshot_2022-12-03_00-26-32.png]] 00:02:01.360 --> 00:02:03.919 Once again, we're going to be streaming with open captions 00:02:03.920 --> 00:02:06.639 for most of the talks this year, thanks to our speakers and 00:02:06.640 --> 00:02:09.919 captioning volunteers. The captioned talks are indicated 00:02:09.920 --> 00:02:12.519 on the schedule, and with any luck, we'll be posting 00:02:12.520 --> 00:02:16.119 transcripts on talk pages shortly after the talks start. 00:02:16.120 --> 00:02:18.919 If you need additional accommodations, please let us know 00:02:18.920 --> 00:02:20.319 in #emacsconf-org and we'll see 00:02:20.320 --> 00:02:22.439 if we can make things happen. NOTE status.emacsconf.org, #emacsconf-org [[file:/home/sacha/screenshots/Screenshot_2022-12-03_00-26-55.png]] 00:02:22.440 --> 00:02:26.319 If something goes down, we'll update status.emacsconf.org. 00:02:26.320 --> 00:02:27.799 If it doesn't look like we've noticed yet, 00:02:27.800 --> 00:02:31.599 please let us know in the #emacsconf-org IRC channel, 00:02:31.600 --> 00:02:34.519 where we will be quietly panicking. NOTE Guidelines for conduct [[file:/home/sacha/screenshots/Screenshot_2022-12-03_00-27-19.png]] 00:02:34.520 --> 00:02:36.959 In all of these conversations, please keep in mind 00:02:36.960 --> 00:02:39.759 our guidelines for conduct. You can find them on the wiki, 00:02:39.760 --> 00:02:42.959 and they basically boil down to: please be nice. Thank you! NOTE Recordings #+CAPTION: [[file:/home/sacha/screenshots/Screenshot_2022-12-03_00-27-53.png]] 00:02:42.960 --> 00:02:47.519 We'll be posting the prerecorded videos as soon as possible. 00:02:47.520 --> 00:02:50.039 Assuming things go well, you might be able to check out 00:02:50.040 --> 00:02:52.719 quick replays on the Toobnix channel, which you can 00:02:52.720 --> 00:02:55.679 find on the watch page in the wiki. We'll post the live 00:02:55.680 --> 00:02:58.759 talks and Q&A sessions some time after the conference. 00:02:58.760 --> 00:03:01.799 If you'd like to get an update, you can subscribe to 00:03:01.800 --> 00:03:05.359 the emacsconf-discuss mailing list. NOTE Let's have fun [[file:/home/sacha/screenshots/Screenshot_2022-12-03_00-28-14.png]] 00:03:05.360 --> 00:03:06.599 All right, let's get going. 00:03:06.600 --> 00:03:09.639 Leo Vivier is going to be hosting the general track, 00:03:09.640 --> 00:03:12.399 and Amin Bandali will host the development track. 00:03:12.400 --> 00:03:15.319 The other volunteers and I will run around mostly backstage, 00:03:15.320 --> 00:03:18.159 and you'll probably meet us in the closing remarks. 00:03:18.160 --> 00:03:20.720 Let's have fun at EmacsConf 2022!
