[name=erwin] > Perhaps in the call for presenters form, we could add a check-box whether they want to waive this offer, or direct the money to a charity (e.g. our previous plan for tree planting? 1,500 = 150 trees) * Follow-up with these folks who are likely to be keen to present: * Facebook * Mapillary * Aaron Opdyke/ Sydney University * OSM work in Carigara LEY, and their paper: "An Open Data Approach to Mapping Urban Drainage Infrastructure in Developing Communities * There were no consensus on how to spread tracks/themes across multiple days. * Program team to discuss further ### Tech Team * Marx volunteered to coordinate the Tech team * call for volunteers * Team will be responsible for * supporting the back-end operations for pnm20 * evaluating the conference platform * AGREED: FOSS-first (e.g. Jitsi) but will evaluate Zoom, etc for feasibility * considerations: privacy and security * license: FOSS vs proprietary * usability and features > there is a standing offer from FEF to let us use their Zoom account for the event * determine whether the WeMap approach can be used in PnM * we can pre-record on secret Jitsi session * Marx wondered whether it's a good idea to make pre-recordings available before the PnM public sessions, to allow deep participants interaction during Q&A? * during pnm, show video live during the public session * utilize YouTube for recording and streaming (no cost for us) * live Q&A afterwards * those having connectivity issues will be directed to YT for a slightly delayed broadcast * this approach will create two types of recording in our YT channel * presentation recordings * live show of presentation with Q&A #### Etcetera * BoF session proposal with OSM Asia folks * In a meeting with SotM Asia folks, maning invited them to participate/present in the PnM event for November * one of the ideas is a tapok-tapok session with OSM in Asia folks * sotmasia21 will be hosted by Sri Lanka * no details about online sotmasia21 plans * Erwin proposed a poster-making contest in lieu of logo-making contest since Cham already invested a lot of time and effort in the current design * Maning: in sotm20, poster-making didn't make any significant impact * Erwin: contests should contribute to helping promote awareness for the event * Erwin to discuss proposal with Cham/Marketing
