<p class="center">EmacsConf is the conference about the joy of
<a href="https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/">GNU Emacs</a> and
Emacs Lisp.</p>

We are busy putting things together for EmacsConf 2024, and we would
love to have *your* help to make EmacsConf 2024 amazing, much like the
previous EmacsConfs.  Missed the proposal deadline but got a great idea anyway? [[Let us know|/2024/cfp]] just in case we can still squeeze you in somehow.

We are holding EmacsConf 2024 as an online conference again this year.
We remain fully committed to freedom, and we will continue using our
infrastructure and streaming setup consisting entirely of [free
software][freesw], much like previous EmacsConf conferences.

There is also a satellite event in
[Lucerne, Switzerland](https://200ok.ch/posts/2024-09-16_announcing_emacsconf__official_swiss_satellite.html).
Let us know if you want to organize one too!
