Re: [actf-dev] EclipseCon status

I like your summary better than mine.

Yes.

I look forward to your performance.

Yes, so you want a 60-minute talk and it is yet to be determined whether it'll be the standard long-talk in a standard long-talk venue or a standard long-talk in a large room on the main stage. BTW, I am very comfortable in front of large audiences as I was a pianist/vocalist in my prior life and stil perform regularly for clubs and corporate affairs.

Re: [actf-dev] EclipseCon status






Hi Mike. The EclipseCon programme committee would very much like to have an accessibility talk on the main stage. It's just a long talk (60 minute) presented in the big room. The only real wrinkle is that the talk needs to have a speaker who is comfortable with a room that large. I'm hopeful that, assuming you're interested, a talk from ACTF will be suitable.

To summarize. Please submit however many proposals you'd like. I'd very much like for at least one talk to be a 60-minute one. I'm hopeful that an ACTF 60-minute talk to be on the main stage. At this point, I can't promise the main stage as I haven't seen all the submissions yet and ultimately will choose the most appropriate talk for that venue.

Does this make sense?

Definitely working on this. Should have a 1-hour long talk proposal sometime next week. What would be involved in the main-stage talk? Is this something you/the

Foundation would like us to do as well?

[actf-dev] EclipseCon status






Hey folks. There's only 12 days left for submissions for EclipseCon [1].

I'm looking forward to at least one one-hour talk proposal from ACTF (and maybe a 30-minute talk). Can somebody give me some status on the abstract?

There is some interest in having an accessibility talk on the main stage

(i.e. the big room).

FWIW, you don't have to get it perfectly correct the first time. You can

just put *something* into the system and then fix it later...
