Notes for Presenters¶

How to be a Presenter¶

0. Identify yourself as a presenter by putting an entry on the agenda https://etherpad.net/p/Pulp_Sprint_Demo_Agenda
1. Have the necessary google-talk plugins installed in the browser you present from. You can verify this yourself by trying a Youtube Hangout yourself.
2. Ping bmbouter on freenode for the presenter link at least 10 minutes prior to start time.
3. Join and give a screenshare and audio test.

Known Issues¶

• Sometimes presenters receive a 403 error when joining. If you experience this, make sure you are joining with an Google Identity that is not "managed" by Google Apps for Business. In other words, use an @gmail.com address.
• Some terminals aren't listed when you go to share your screen. The workaround is to use xterm. It's some kind of Gnome/Wayland issue that I don't fully understand.

Coordinating a Sprint Demo¶

2. 10 days before the demo send out a call for presenters to pulp-list. Here is an example.
