ML Family Workshop 2020: Call for presentations

Speaking of the OCaml workshop. The videos will be available at the time of the conference, we will either open all of them at Friday or schedule to appear according to the schedule, we didn’t decide yet. But the main idea is that if you’re not registered at ICFP you will still be able to view the presentation at the same time as ICFP participants will see.

We can, technically, arrange broadcasting of the presentation, which will include the interactive Q&A session as well, to YouTube. I am a little bit confused with the legal part of that. We have permissions from the presenters to broadcast them, but I am not sure what about the other attendees of ICFP who will be asking questions. I will take a look into this. I think it should fine, given that ICFP is currently broadcasting live through YouTube.

If we will be able to set up the live-casting to YouTube, then it will be viable to set up the chat where people without ICFP registration could post their questions, which we can forward to the authors, as well as to start discussions. Unlike the ML workshop, I think we can totally rely on the existing OCaml infrastructure :slight_smile:
