<div><br><div><div class=""><div>On Jun 3, 2014, at 7:11 AM, Adam Frost <<a href="mailto:icemandeaf@GMAIL.COM" target="_blank">icemandeaf@GMAIL.COM</a>> wrote:</div><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="auto"><div>That is an interesting question. I'm curious what Val's reply will be. I know that when I presented at TISLR last summer, I had to have as much of a final version 2 weeks before as well. If there were some last minute changes, it was ok to make. However, they wanted to have as close to the final product so that they could make sure that everything would work smoothly during the presentation technically and with interpreters. </div>
</div></blockquote><div><br></div></div><div>Yes. That is exactly why in our <a href="http://www.signwriting.org/symposium/2014/Call_For_Papers.html" target="_blank">Call For Papers on the web</a> it gives a deadline of July 7, 2014, so we can have two weeks to make any changes or adjustments before the final presentation - as you say - we based it on the experiences of presenting at other conferences like TISLR -</div>
<div><br></div><div>If we are going to have interpreters, it is nice for the interpreters to review some of the material before the actual event -</div><div><br></div><div>Of course, our Symposium is online, and it is true that I am always flexible and trying to accommodate everyone too…so let’s all try to help each other - deadlines are flexible, and it all depends on how well you want your web page to be prepared before the online event -</div>
<div><br></div><div>Generally, whatever you can send us before the event the better it is for your presentation… this is for you…for your sake...</div><div><br></div><div>This is not quite the same as an in-house meeting online, because there are so many presenters from so many countries - it is slightly different.</div>
<div class=""><div><br></div><div><br></div><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="auto"><div>Since we won't all be in the same room, I'm sure that Val is thinking about the possibilities that maybe someone can't see/show their presentation live to technical difficulties. The way to get around that would be to have a place that hosts them for people to download. With 40 presentations, I'm sure it would take two weeks alone for Val to create a webpage for that and upload them all. </div>
</div></blockquote><div><br></div></div>That is so true! Thank you for understanding this - yes, I am worried that something might not work well technologically and then we will need the web page for that presenter as the backup - and yes - I have 40 web pages to do - smile -</div>
<div><br></div><div><div class=""><br><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="auto"><div><br></div><div>This might not be the only reason, but it is one that I can think of with relations to past experience with conferences. It's interesting how you said you've never had a "presentation deadline" where I think I have had that every time. Could just be differences in how conferences are run in different places. In any case, just thought I'd leave my one cent. (It isn't two cents anymore due to inflation. *wink*)</div>
</div></blockquote><div><br></div></div>Thank you Adam - for your three cents!!</div><div><br></div><div>Val ;-)</div><div><br></div><div>——</div><div><div class="h5"><div><br></div><div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="auto">

<div dir="ltr">Hello Val,<div>sorry to be "annoying", but I've some problems to understand why there is a "presentation deadline"<div>If I present "live", using a PPT support, why do I have to send the ppt 2 weeks before?

Your videos can be of any length (they can be long), and your written papers can be as long or as short as you wish…anything to archive your presentation.</div>
