A couple of requests from our side:
- In the morning session, we would like each federation to give a short update (10 minutes) about what’s happening on your side. Could you please prepare 2 or 3 slides?
- For the morning discussion slots, please let us know what topics you’d like to see on the agenda. We have some ideas of what we would like to discuss (governance of OpenConext, technical challenges for OpenConext), but we would very much like to know what is relevant to you and if there are any specific topics you would like to talk about.
- Lunch will be vegetarian. If you have any specific dietary requirements, please let us know in advance.
