* '''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.
 
 
* '''Program team''' (running programming proposal process; selections; emails to all submitters; follow-up emails regarding position on schedule; training coordinator; editathon coordinator; academic coordinator; Lightning Talks coordinator): Kevin, BobCummings, Peaceray, Brandon, Richard, Peter, Rosie, Victoria
 
 
* '''Communications team''' (design logo; outreach emails; social media; Meta page; WCNA wiki page/subpages; pre-/post-surveys); includes Peaceray, jamaicaneditor, jfarman, pharos, econterms
 
 
* Scholarships (running scholarship app process, selections)
 
* Volunteer coordinators (identify roles, seek out volunteers, manage scheduling for them)
 
* Safe space (check registration, liase with WMF, monitor behavior, take complaints - keep small (2-3 highly-trusted members of the community); full time responsibility during the conference; they are the points of contact for the WMF event-ban list)
 
* Awards committee? Is that separate, or part of scholarships? communications? a grants committee?
 
* Fundraising committee - as opportunities present
 
* Games committee:
 
* WikiCommons committee (set up category/subcategories)
 
 
* See [[2021/organizing teams/archive]] for older/historic notes from this page (April-May 2021)
 
 
; Tue June 1: Planned announcement of call for presentations
 
* soft launch occurred ; we will wait to announce in a big way until Wikimania submissions are done circa June 18
 
 
; Logistics agenda
 
* Let's make a list of platforms to evaluate and compare for the conference itself:
 
* interpretation, transcription, and translation: otter.ai, ava.me, zoom? google meet/translate?
 
* registration: ti.to, ...
 
* main conference sessions: ti.to, OpenWater, whatever rightscon.summit.tc is using, (note .tc=Turks & Caicos, .to is Tonga)
 
** ti.to seems most feasible; Peter to follow up with ti.to
