Timeline

Voting dates: to be announced. Jury: the top three talks in each topic go to a three-person jury. Announcement: early January 2027.

What counts as a vote

Only confirmed votes count. After you submit the form we email you a link; your vote is counted when you open it and press "Confirm my vote". Unconfirmed votes are never shown in the counts.

The confirmation link

The confirmation link lifetime will be announced with the voting details. If it expires, simply vote again. The confirmation must also happen before voting closes.

One vote per topic

You can vote once in each of the four topics. Before you confirm, you can change your choice by voting again in the same topic; the newest link replaces the earlier one. Once confirmed, a vote is final.

Fair play

One person, one address. Votes from bots, throwaway or borrowed addresses, or paid votes are removed.
