ICHEP did a really good job with captioning, but as far as I understand they had sponsoring to cover that. Virtual conferences have the advantage of being more “physically” accessible so we can work towards allowing everyone who wants to join remotely with different needs. <div class=""><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Caterina<br class=""><div><br class=""><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On 31 Aug 2020, at 23:11, Heidi Schellman <<a href="mailto:schellmh@science.oregonstate.edu" class="">schellmh@science.oregonstate.edu</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class="">

<div class=""><p class="">One model that IUPAP discussed was to charge speakers at remote
conferences a nominal registration fee (50 EU has been suggested)
to cover expenses (IT support and proceedings) while participants
would be able to register for free. I'd like to hear from the IAC
what they thing of such a model. It does cost something to run a
virtual conference and speaking is a positive activity that people
should be willing to pay a small fee for.</p><p class="">I am in favor of proceedings, despite being very lax with them in

Hi,<br class="">
<div class="moz-forward-container"> <br class="">
I also find large conferences do not have the same important
social impact as virtual ones and the reason we have been coping
is because we mostly have met before, but this doesn't work well
for new generations.<br class="">
<br class="">
I agree with this plan. And I like the idea of CHEPinos in
cooperation with WLCG/HSF/OSG. Smaller and perhaps topical
meetings work well. <br class="">

I concur with everything that has been said so far:
<div class="">- Postpone CHEP in Norfolk to 2022, and make it
a traditional “fully in-presence” format if at all possible
by then</div>
<div class="">- Reach out to the HSF/WLCG/OSF workshop
organisers to co-organise themed virtual workshops (or
CHEPinos) in 2021. Maybe extend it also to Hepix?</div>
<div class="">- Encourage the use of existing journals to
publish papers that cannot wait for the next CHEP
proceedings</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">Just one word of caution: we should also work
with the ACAT organisers to ensure a coherent overall
approach, in particular to ensure that in 2022 the two
conferences do not happen in quick succession. There may be
other conferences that are rescheduling into what might
become a very busy few months.</div>
