The good news is, a LOT of you are interested in presenting at the Open Podium! But this also means we have to reduce the time for individual presentations to fit all of them.
Solution: Lightning talks! 5 min talk + 5 min questions. This is similar to what many conferences (e.g. GLOW, SALT) do nowadays.

Prepare max. 1-2 slides of the core proposal of your talk and email them as a PDF to Petra (petracharvat AT gmail DOT com) *by 10.00am on Tuesday*. Presentations will be on Tue and Wed.

In response to popular demand, there will be an introduction to LaTeX by Tom McFadden and Karlos Arregi, tomorrow during the Open Podium slot, i.e. from 17.15 to 18.30, in the Syntax room (208). Everyone is welcome, no matter how much you already know or don’t know about LaTeX. We’re going to try to make it as hands on as possible, so if you have a laptop, bring it, and if you don’t, don’t worry, it’ll still be worthwhile!
