Hi Gerard, Do you have a better suggestion? Something practical and less expensive, that could actually work to make conferences more widely accessible? Cheers, Peter

Eh, and what choices are then made when conferences coincide as they do with this conference? Not really practical and really expensive. Thanks, GerardM

It would be great if the Foundation hired a dedicated A/V team to remote-enable as many conferences and meetups as possible.

Hello Phoebe, thank you for the good news. We invest so much in our conferences, that it is a pity that they often are not recorded. Kind regards Ziko

Dear all, We are looking forward to WikiConference North America here at MIT in Cambridge, Massachusetts this weekend! We will be welcoming around 250 people over the four-day weekend, with a museum and cultural
institution
culture crawl on Friday, conference sessions on Saturday and Sunday,
and
discussion/hackathon focused on reliability and credibility on Monday.
For those who can't be here with us in person, we have a live stream planned of three of our session rooms on Saturday and Sunday. To access
the
stream, go here: http://web.mit.edu/webcast/wiki/f19/
We are looking forward to sharing as much of the conference as we can
with
you all! To find out what is when, the schedule is here (all times
eastern
time): https://wikiconference.org/wiki/2019/Schedule
We have a packed schedule with sessions about education, research, outreach, and more, as well as a special focus/track in our main
auditorium
on credibility and reliability in the news and media, which our
partners
at
the Credibility Coalition are assisting with. As we think about the
future
of Wikipedia as a reliable source in a world where social media
platforms
and media networks are struggling with issues of misinformation and credibility, we hope that this program will be both timely and helpful.
Let me know if you have any questions and I hope you are able to tune
in
online. Phoebe, for WCNA
