2019-10-29 EmacsConf 2019 !

Tags: EmacsStuff EmacsConf

I had forgotten about the 2019 Emacs conference, and was actually under the impression that it was a physical event. However, by happy chance, I stumbled across the oddmuse wiki powering the EmacsConf website today and realised it is an online conference that I can happily attend. The listed talks look very interesting and I am looking forward to hearing from and interacting with other Emacs practitioners and improving my own skills. I hope I'm in a better position to actually present something at the next conference though. That would be a lot of fun, though I think I need to get a lot better using Emacs before I can come up with something worthy of attention. I think there is a level of customization, comfort and exploration of emacs-lisp that I am yet to reach to enable that.

In the process, it was heartening to note that the organiser AminBandali? (https://bandali.eu.org/) also lives in Canada. SachaChua is one other person I know who is based here.

EmacsConf? website no longer uses Oddmuse since Oddmuse does not have an inherent method to create subcategories of pages. I think they use ikiwiki now. However it stands that OddmuseWiki is awesome! [2023-12-25]
