### Opening Remarks - Samer Masterson - 9am

###seq.el and map.el - Nicolas Petton - 10am

seq.el and map.el are two new libraries included in Emacs 25.1.  In this

users can benefit from using them.

###Org-Mode Exporter From Scratch - Marcin Borkowski - 11am

###Hearing From Emacs Beginners - Gopar + mflor35 - 2pm

Emacs is stable and robust, but the younger generation doesn't see it
that way. Here are some first time impressions and opinions on how we
can change that

###How To Start An Emacs Meetup! - Harry Schwartz - 3pm

Are you a cantankerous Emacs enthusiast? Wanna meet some like-minded
kooks? Consider starting a local meetup group!

Harry Schwartz (co-founder of EmacsNYC) will discuss the joys and
perils of growing a local technical community. This talk will cover
(1) laying the technical groundwork for a meetup group, (2) ensuring
that your group is inclusive, welcoming, and comfortable for everyone,
and (3) keeping yourself from going crazy.

###Break - 4pm

###Techniques and Tools for Literate DevOps - Howard Abrahms - 5pm

Lacking the Hermetic knowledge required to administer
servers, I take judicious notes and hyperlinks. Why not _combine_ those
written thoughts with the terminal commands to configure and tame our
digital beasties? We have a tool for that.

###Emacs For Scholarly Writing - Erik Hetzner - 6pm

Many scientists and humanists are beginning to believe that the best
way to ensure the longevity of their research is by using plain text
formats. Reproducible research, where code and data and published
alongside an article, is also gaining popularity. Emacs is highly
suited to implementing these solutions. I will explore ways that we
can help support scholars who use Emacs.

###Lightning Talks - 7pm

###Dinner - 8pm
