Hi all, as most of you likely already know, SotM 2020 [1] will be a virtual conference [2]. Nevertheless, in addition to regular talks, there will also be lightning talks and self organised sessions. Of course, the format of those will be quite a bit different:
* Lightning talks: As usual, those will be short ~5 minute talks. However, these talks have to be pre-recorded and uploaded before 28 June 2020. You can find more information about this and the registration for lightning talks on the OSM wiki [3]. We're also providing a short tutorial about the production of such pre-recorded talks [4] that is based on OBS Studio [5]. * Self organised sessions: These will be done as audio or video conferences - which many of you are probably quite used to by now. More information can also be found on the OSM wiki [6] where we have also prepared a howto for these sessions [7]. If you happen to run a Jitsi, BigBlueButton or Mumble instance that could be used to run these sessions during the SotM conference, please add it to the list of public servers [8]. Thanks! We're very much looking forward to your lightning talk and self organised session submissions for the virtual SotM 2020 :)!
