Important Information for Speakers

  • Please get in the call at least 10 minutes before your presentation starts.

  • Sign up on the platform using the same name as listed on the GUADEC schedule: https://events.gnome.org/event/1/contributions/authors. This will help our volunteers find you and grant you ‘presenter’ privileges.

  • When you become a “presenter” you will see this toolbar at the bottom of the page:

  • Click the blue plus sign button and select “upload a presentation”. 

  • Upload your presentation and then you are ready to start the talk.

  • At the end of your talk, you can remove your presentation by clicking the blue plus sign button, selecting “upload a presentation” and using the trash icon to delete it.


Important Information for Attendees 

  • To enter the virtual room, you will only need to write your name and access code; please select “listen only” to join the presentation so as not to disturb or interrupt the speakers.

  • Feel free to write all the questions for the speakers in the public chat. We will note these questions and the speaker will answer a selection at the end of their talk. 

  • This platform works smoothly in all browsers.
