Things to know

  • Changes may take up to 10 minutes to become visible to every user. If you make a time sensitive change (such as a last minute room change), please visit the page in incognito to check if the update is already available.
  • Title and abstract can use $\mathrm{\LaTeX}$: just go with the usual delimiters (dollars, backslash parentheses, etc). The content will be rendered by MathJax 3.
  • You can upload slides and other attachments, as long as you follow some rules:
    • attachments must be named exactly as the URL of the event (so YYYY-MM-DD-speaker-name-affiliation.PDF); please be strict about it or it will become absolutely unmanageable;
    • attachments should be added to the 'Key Facts' as 'Slides / PDF / link';
    • check that all images are properly licensed (e.g. for CC-BY-SA images, the attribution is written); please remove images for which you are not certain;
    • request and store privately the LaTeX sources if possible, to make sure we are able to act on requests for accessible formats.

    See Andrew DeLapo's talk for an example, and do not hesitate to ask Vincenzo for clarifications.

  • Multispeaker talks are not supported. If you have multiple speakers, you can:
    • create separate entries for each talk;
    • create a single event whose title is 'Speaker 1 (Affiliation 1), Speaker 2 (Affiliation 2)', remove the 'Speaker', 'Affiliation' key facts, and use the main text to write titles and abstracts;
    • for workshops and conferences, set the title to the name of the event, remove the 'Speaker', 'Affiliation' key facts, and use the main text to give details about the event.
