At least for the topics I was asked about, the criteria I used was to focus on topics that intersected with UCX's usage of RDMA with an eye toward interacting with the UCX developers and users directly to ensure verbs features are meeting their needs. Keep in mind that UCX is one of the major users of RDMA for HPC focused features and UCX has had a minimal presence at the various other conferences. So, I view this as good opportunity to work with that community, which is why I agreed to do the keynote. Although this came together at the very last minute, I think it should still be widely announced so that no-one is excluded. > Maybe the sessions could be recorded?

Pavel are you the right person to comment on this? Jason
