* '''Logistics team''': (translations, broadcast, video, platforms, working w/ Event Manager): Platforms will include presentations (zoom/google meet/jitsi, social spaces like gather, and perhaps broadcast, like Streamyard/youtube; must choose and test these, and how to degrade/backup). Also real-world logistics for the picnics. Might have social time on Clubhouse, before or during the conference or during. So far includes Pharos, econterms, peaceray, jamaicaneditor, omar_sansi, and jfarman. We'll need input from others.
