>> Hi everyone,

>> Thank you for all of your time and hard work the past couple of weeks!
>> It’s time for you to select the talks that will be included on the final
>> Summit schedule. You have between now and Friday, August 28 at 11:59pm
>> PT (August 29 at 6:59 UTC) to make your Team Selections.
>>
>> FIRST - WATCH THE TUTORIAL VIDEO
>> Before you do anything else, watch the Part Two tutorial video
>> <https://www.screencast.com/t/xjzPDsEIi>.
>>
>> The video explains how to review and add talks to your personal list and
>> team list. Under the Team Selections tab, you can drag and drop the
>> presentations into your order of preference. We'll consider the
>> presentations at the top of the list to be the most important to include in
>> the final Summit agenda.
>>
>> Each Track has a predetermined amount of sessions and once this quantity

>> Each Track will also have a set number of alternates. If a presentation is

>> available in the event they are needed.
>>
>> Please note that everyone on your team shares the Team Selections column.
>> Any changes that you make will override the selections/order choices that
>> your colleagues may have made in this column. Therefore, before making your
>> final session selections inside the Team Selections tab––we recommend that
>> you and your fellow Programming Committee members schedule time together
>> via Zoom, Google Hangout, IRC, or your platform of choice to discuss the
>> final team selections. Once you have finalized your selections as a team,
>> add them into the Team Selections tab. The Team Selections tab must be
>> completed no later than Friday, August 28 at 11:59pm PT (August 29 at
>> 6:59 UTC).
>>
>> As you make your Team Selections, please work to include a diverse set of
>> sessions, companies and speakers. Please do NOT set expectations with
>> any speakers ranked in your category. The Foundation staff will send the
>> speaker notifications the week of September 7.
>>
>> COMBINING SESSIONS OR CREATING NEW PANELS
>> You may want to combine sessions into panels or other formats, especially
>> if there are multiple submissions about the same topic. However we request
>> that you try to limit the number of new panels to no more than 40% of the
>> selected sessions in your Track. If you are creating a new panel, please
>> try to include a diverse set of speakers for the presentation. In order to
>> combine talks or create new panels please follow these instructions
>> <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PPQKu9AXwOU> and email the requested
>> information to speakersupport at openstack.org.
>>
>> COMMUNICATING WITH YOUR FELLOW PROGRAMMING COMMITTEE MEMBERS
>> You have the ability to contact your fellow Programming Committee members
>> directly via their contact information within the tool
>> <https://www.openstack.org/track-chairs/directory> (by clicking on their
>> name to send an email), but we also encourage you to make use of this
>> mailing list to initiate or continue the discussion with all programming
>> committees.
>>
>> Reminder––please make all final selections in the tool no later than Friday,
>> August 28 at 11:59pm PT (August 29 at 6:59 UTC).  Should you have any
>> queries or issues along the way, please notify us at
>> speakersupport at openstack.org.
>>
>> New for virtual Summit:
>>
>>    - Please note the number below is the maximum number of presentations
>>    you can select for your Track. We want to prioritize quality over quantity,
>>    so you are not required to fill all of those slots. On the other hand, if
>>    your Track has more qualified talks than the maximum amount allowed, you
>>    can designate some sessions as alternates and they will still have the
>>    opportunity to record a session.
>>    - To fit the new virtual format, sessions will be pre-recorded, and
>>    speakers should be prepared to be present on the event platform during
>>    their presentation for potential live chat Q&A.
>>
>>
>> Also, if you’re working outside the tool, the counts per track are the
>> following. These counts are flexible, so if there are too many amazing
>> presentations, please let us know and we will do our best to accommodate:
>>
>> Max Slots Alternates
>> 5G, NFV & Edge 15 3
>> AI, Machine Learning, HPC 8 2
>> CI/CD 6 2
>> Container Infrastructure 15 3
>> Getting Started 8 2
>> Hands-on Workshops 5 2
>> Open Development 6 2
>> Private & Hybrid Cloud 22 4
>> Public Cloud 6 2
>> Security 6 2
