How to Use This Page
To find the notes for a session, scan the schedule for the session title, and click on the title to bring up the new or existing session notes page.
If you're new to wiki editing, here's how to add your conference notes and materials:
To post your notes you must be logged in to the wiki. Click the Edit tab on the session notes page. Add your notes, using Wiki Markup for formatting or links. If you have posted session notes elsewhere or blogged about the session, post links to that content. Add a brief comment in the Summary field at the bottom describing the change you've made to the page. It's a good idea to preview the page before saving, to make sure the formatting and links are correct. Then click Save page to save your work before you navigate away from the page.
To upload slides or other content related to the sessions, click the Upload file bottom in the Toolbox to the left. Then add a link to the file on the associated session notes page. There is a 3.5M limit to files to you upload. If your slides are larger than 3.5M you can either post them elsewhere and link to them or email Community at anitaborg dot org for assistance.
Since the GHC schedule is subject to change, if you find something in the wrong place it's okay to move it. And if you take notes on a GHC session missing from the list, go ahead and add it.
