Following Andrew's comments, here's what I know --
1 - User Digest is just one session of about 30 minutes. Liaisons pick the speakers to that. It's supposed to give a review of the thematic subject - GLAM, EDU, etc.
2 - I'm posting here what I've sent to the Cultural Partners Mailing List -
"I've just updated the GLAM part on the program liaison page on Meta, putting there everything from our joint google doc.
Now that the "critical issues" submission part is over, it's high time to submit your suggestions to all the other aspects of our GLAM track, if you haven't done so thus far. This includes suggestions for:
* Discussions
* Workshops / Training
* Posters
* Lightning talks
* Anything else we might have forgotten
Some of you have already contacted me privately about discussions and workshops, so please feel free to update the relevant part on meta.
Try to keep it in the same format as suggested below, so it's easier to follow -
* Title:
* Purpose:
* Target audience:
* Length:
* Max number of people (only if there is a limitation on your part):
* Facilitator(s):
* any other detail that will help others get a sense of the workshop and what you want to achieve.
* Purpose:
* Target audience:

In other words, use the liaison page for now, till the organizing team has the separate pages ready.
- Follow the format suggest, so it's cohesive and easier to follow.
- Show your support to proposals, the wiki-way. The organizing team will take that into consideration.
- When the organizing team opens submissions for the remaining parts -- submit!
Hope that helps,
Shani.
