Afterword

We learned a lot about hosting a virtual conference from the materials posted publicly by many other conferences and organizers. We have written a SALT30 runbook -- information about how we ran virtual SALT30 with a timeline and many technical details, in case it is useful to others.

We are running a post-conference survey and will post those results here when available.
