- Overall program
- Andrew will move waffle board panels/presentations to three categories/tracks:
- Can we confirm these were tracks decided?
- dev
- manager
- general–within general we'll highlight newcomer
- To include items like 10 minute breaks
- When we'll have WG/IG updates
- When we'll have Lightning Talks
- Brian has created a draft spreadsheet of overall conference, here:
- Is there anything not on wiki/conference site we're now ready to publish?
- Need to decide: on WG/IG updates at Connect?
- Agreed they should not go in the plenary–no decision yet where they should go
- STILL undecided where WG/IG updates should go...just not as plenary
- Previously decided we'd circle back to this AFTER the parallel tracks were sorted
- But with delay we need to decide this today
- Andrew's suggestion: have 2 sections go together–lightning talks and WG/IG updates–do the latter as identifiable group though
- If we decide to have them, we have to initiate communication with WG/IG leaders confirming they will give updates
- We had one inquiry from Benjamin Armintor wanting to give lightning talk if no WG/IG updates
- Plenary
- Code of Conduct update–Hannah Conduct update–Hannah Frost
- State of Samvera Community address–20 minutes
- Samvera Governance–Steering will select speaker/s and inform us
- Other plenary content
All 3 proposals for presentation moved to plenary have been contacted and agreed to do this:
Hyrax Roadmap
Valkyrie: An Introduction and Update
- Avalon Update
- Workshops:
- Andrew sent mass-email all the workshop presenters, asking them to
- Review their workshop information on the wiki
- Supply a description if missing
- Agree/decline recording
- Confirm am/pm times (hold off for now; reiterate these times not final)
- Ask again about specific needs for dev env (Brian will send along 2-3 clarifying questions) Andrew will send follow-up emails 8/29-31 to anyone missing any information on workshopsCan we confirm am/pm times and room assignments for workshops?
- Rooms have been assigned for all now...can we put room numbers on wiki?
- Brian indicates some rooms are limited to 21; he and Richard think we should hold off on assigning rooms (making them public) til we know which ones are smaller
- Agreed we do not need to raise this issue yet with proposers
- Workshops spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1F0R3bWU4rD3LhjOfLIsBQw2mlQXfGwWsSZYdw1NYmOA/edit#gid=624287811

- What's missing for subjects or audience in panels etc.?
- Ask committee to review and send in suggestions?
- Recommendations from the committee on additional panels/discussion sections?
Can we create tracks now (or should we also have people review and send in suggestions)? - All proposals OK'ed at 8/7 meeting.
- Richard HAS contacted ALL presentation/panel proposers.
- What is needed in follow-up? (send replies and update Waffle board as they come in?)
- Is this correct that Chris volunteered to put all panels and presentations into room/time table...is that available?
- AGREED we will organize panels and presentations into 3 parallel tracks:
- Program committee members will review and move waffleboard issues into the 3 tracksif not, Andrew will move items to 3 parallel tracks on waffle board, and then to spreadsheet (to assign specific times and rooms)
- Richard noted still 12 panel leaders not yet registered
- Andrew will email them individually week of 9/4
- Andrew did not get lightning talks CFP out before travel but will send in next 2 days
- AGREED: Lightning Talks will occur within each of the parallel tracks
- but at DIFFERENT TIMES so people can see them all
- and in SAME LOCATION to make it easier to navigate
- Lightning Talks CFP can go out today–Andrew
- What is anticipated time limit? (some reaction to virtual connect that 5 minutes not long enough)
- SIGN-UP page says "approximately 5 minutes and definitely no more than 7"–that seems fine to me...or extend to 10 minutes?
- Where will Lightning Talks occur in the schedule?
- (see above) what about idea to group Lightning Talks and WG/IG updates?
- We will let people make proposals right up until the time people gave them, but not publicize that in CFP
- We will have a deadline in the CFP–9/28?
- Aaron and Brian have been working on SessionizerWhen do we think we need that ready?
- Conference site here: https://connect2018.lib.utah.edu

- Live-streaming (defer discussion to 9/11 meeting)
- Chris Diaz read a paper that came out about individuals doing conference live-streaming and will summarize at our next meeting on 7/17/2018 and posted this paper to our Google Drive
- LPC have live-streamed conferences using cells; they get tripods and mics; and use twitter and periscope for sessions; then upload to youtube
- Chris thinks its very do-able; Richard wonders who pays for cell data? Chris suggesting using a library tablet with wifi; wifi better for bandwidth
- Emily says Periscope will give info on numbers of people
- Chris will follow up with Brian
- Video releases (defer discussion to 9/11 meeting)
- Micah Zeller submitted a baseline release from for workshop & panel presenters; discuss concerns raised by Richard...
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1fj6DD7ZzyFOmlO-0aQY39su-fPuB48Vj - Richard: first, drop "project" from document
- Second what about lanyards and people might get accidentally into pictures
- Micah suggested our videos should get releases from just presenters and alert audience members who don't want to be photographed
- Room captains could be given a blurb
- We could also put up 2-3 BIG posters
- Richard suggests asking people handing out lanyards (at registration tables) to point out those posters and tell people sessions will be recorded
- Emily Stenberg has added draft language on recordings (for room captains to communicate at taped sessions) https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1eGkhtd7jmGruYQgLgj7XuxHqDEJPoM0R?usp=sharing
- Micah Zeller submitted a baseline release from for workshop & panel presenters; discuss concerns raised by Richard...
