[[!template text="""of some of the things we do to run EmacsConf.""" start="00:00:04.840" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""Since 2019, we've run it as an entirely online conference,""" start="00:00:07.960" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="""within Emacs itself.""" start="00:00:14.700" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template new="1" text="""Reasons""" start="00:00:16.580" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="""I have three reasons for making this presentation.""" start="00:00:16.580" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""The first is entirely selfish: I need to figure out""" start="00:00:19.760" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""all the stuff I built for last year's EmacsConf,""" start="00:00:22.760" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""since it was a bit of a crazy scramble.""" start="00:00:25.360" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""The second is that I want to show people""" start="00:00:28.080" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""the process of thinking about a complex project,""" start="00:00:30.160" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""looking for little things to automate in Emacs,""" start="00:00:33.240" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""and building things up from small pieces.""" start="00:00:35.880" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""Maybe you'll get some ideas""" start="00:00:38.440" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""and start building tools for yourself, too.""" start="00:00:39.800" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""The third is that you find any of these little tools interesting,""" start="00:00:42.760" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""I want to point you to blog posts and source code""" start="00:00:47.040" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""where you can find out more.""" start="00:00:49.440" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""That way, you don't need to try""" start="00:00:51.240" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""to read and understand everything quickly.""" start="00:00:52.560" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""You can find this presentation and other links""" start="00:00:55.400" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""on the talk page at emacsconf.org/2023/talks/emacsconf.""" start="00:00:57.720" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""There are a lot of different parts,""" start="00:01:04.440" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""so I'll try to use this map to help make sense of it all.""" start="00:01:06.320" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template new="1" text="""Information""" start="00:01:09.400" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="""There's so much information to work with,""" start="00:01:09.400" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""so it probably doesn't surprise you that we use Org Mode a lot.""" start="00:01:11.200" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""Most of the conference coordination happens over e-mail,""" start="00:01:14.920" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""which I can quickly search with notmuch.""" start="00:01:18.000" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""Some of the information is private,""" start="00:01:20.640" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""like emergency contact numbers.""" start="00:01:22.360" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""We store the talk information in a private Org file.""" start="00:01:24.520" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""I try to put as much as possible""" start="00:01:28.080" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""into our public organizers' notebook""" start="00:01:30.080" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""so that processes and decisions are documented.""" start="00:01:32.320" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""We need a public website.""" start="00:01:35.360" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""We use Ikiwiki to make the webpages""" start="00:01:36.920" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""because we can work with plain text files""" start="00:01:39.040" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""in a Git repository.""" start="00:01:41.120" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""We also make a few static HTML pages""" start="00:01:42.600" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""for things where Ikiwiki is a little awkward.""" start="00:01:45.400" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""We post announcements to mailing lists.""" start="00:01:48.120" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""We also receive submissions in a private mailing list""" start="00:01:50.520" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""so that a number of people can review them.""" start="00:01:53.160" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""We have a backstage area""" start="00:01:55.640" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""for sharing files with volunteers and speakers.""" start="00:01:56.840" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""We share those files publicly when the talk goes live.""" start="00:01:59.960" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""And there's all the other stuff that goes into running EmacsConf,""" start="00:02:03.120" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""like shell scripts and configuration files.""" start="00:02:06.320" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template new="1" text="""Properties""" start="00:02:09.160" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="""First, speakers propose a talk by sending an e-mail.""" start="00:02:09.160" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""We take the info from that e-mail and store it in Org properties""" start="00:02:12.320" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""so that we can work with it later.""" start="00:02:15.800" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""Every talk is identified with an ID,""" start="00:02:18.200" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""but since `:ID:` and `:CUSTOM_ID:` have special meanings for Org,""" start="00:02:20.600" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""I use `:SLUG:` as the keyword.""" start="00:02:24.120" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""Speakers' names go into the `:NAME:` property,""" start="00:02:25.600" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""and a short version goes into `:NAME_SHORT:`""" start="00:02:27.760" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""so that we can include that in a greeting.""" start="00:02:29.800" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""If people follow the template closely...""" start="00:02:32.200" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""...we can even automatically fill in the Org subtree for their talk.""" start="00:02:34.440" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""We can use regular expressions to recognize the text""" start="00:02:38.040" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""and extract the properties.""" start="00:02:40.800" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""Other properties need to be set by hand.""" start="00:02:42.880" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""I often mess things up when I retype them.""" start="00:02:45.360" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""To avoid typos, I have a function that sets a property""" start="00:02:47.560" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""based on the current region. I bind that to `C-c C-x p`.""" start="00:02:51.040" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""That makes it much easier to set properties""" start="00:02:56.040" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""that couldn't automatically be recognized.""" start="00:02:58.600" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""Sometimes it makes sense to dynamically generate a property""" start="00:03:01.240" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""and then edit it, like with filenames.""" start="00:03:04.520" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""We like to name all the talk files the same way,""" start="00:03:07.680" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""but sometimes special characters in talk titles or speaker names""" start="00:03:10.400" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""need a little tweaking. I'll put that in a `:FILE_PREFIX:` property""" start="00:03:14.440" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""so I can edit it.""" start="00:03:17.840" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""An Org property match can map over all the talk entries""" start="00:03:19.440" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""that don't have `:FILE_PREFIX:` defined.""" start="00:03:22.800" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""We can use that `:FILE_PREFIX:` to rename files from Emacs.""" start="00:03:25.440" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""With that property, we can then rename files using that prefix,""" start="00:03:29.200" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""some extra text, and the file extension.""" start="00:03:32.640" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""Sometimes it's easier to work with the data outside Emacs,""" start="00:03:35.640" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""like when I want to rename files with a shell script.""" start="00:03:38.880" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""If I export a subset of the data as JSON""" start="00:03:42.120" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""or JavaScript Object Notation, using `json-encode`...""" start="00:03:45.320" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""... then I can extract the data with `jq`""" start="00:03:48.960" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""and use it in shell scripts.""" start="00:03:51.120" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template new="1" text="""Timezones""" start="00:03:53.120" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="""Another example of semi-structured information""" start="00:03:53.120" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""is speaker availability.""" start="00:03:55.640" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""We have speakers from all over the world,""" start="00:03:57.300" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""so we try to schedule live Q&A sessions when they're around.""" start="00:03:59.620" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""That means working with timezones.""" start="00:04:03.020" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""Completion makes it much easier to set the timezone property""" start="00:04:05.020" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""without worrying about typos.""" start="00:04:08.440" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""We can take advantage of the timezone list from the tzc package,""" start="00:04:10.600" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""which works with Unix timezone definitions.""" start="00:04:14.360" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""Then we can convert times using Emacs.""" start="00:04:17.160" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""Using a standard format to encode the availability""" start="00:04:19.920" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""makes it easier to parse.""" start="00:04:22.640" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""I can use those availability constraints to report errors""" start="00:04:24.400" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""when I'm experimenting with the schedule.""" start="00:04:27.440" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template new="1" text="""Scheduling""" start="00:04:29.720" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]

[[!template text="""Now that I have the availability information,""" start="00:04:29.720" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""I can think about scheduling.""" start="00:04:31.680" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""When we were planning EmacsConf 2022, the schedule was so full,""" start="00:04:33.941" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""I wanted to see if we could make it more manageable""" start="00:04:38.240" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""by splitting it up into two tracks.""" start="00:04:40.840" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""It was hard to think about times with just a table.""" start="00:04:43.040" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""I was able to turn the schedule information""" start="00:04:45.920" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""into an SVG to convince the other organizers""" start="00:04:48.200" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""to get on board with this crazy plan.""" start="00:04:51.280" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""And the nice thing about SVGs is that""" start="00:04:53.360" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""they can even be clickable on the wiki.""" start="00:04:54.960" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""Being able to quickly make SVGs of different schedules""" start="00:04:57.520" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""also helped me test scheduling ideas and think out loud.""" start="00:05:00.640" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""I could change the time between talks, the order of the talks,""" start="00:05:04.200" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""and even what tracks the talks were in.""" start="00:05:06.880" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
[[!template text="""This was helpful when I needed to include""" start="00:05:08.940" video="mainVideo-emacsconf" id="subtitle"]]
