Conferences and online discussions run the risk of taking place in The Eternal Now, losing their sense of memory and history - distributed and collected that they may be - to the eternal churn of the topic-du-jour.

The beautiful thing about it is the #archive of all the past sessions available at https://fediforum.org/
Strongly urge any new (and returning) participants to have a quick skim over what's been said
