Practice Session 2 for PNSQC2021

What we have learned from ML is that:
We can send out emails to a list of registrants who have already registered for diff packages.
This is good because we need to create zoom meetings for each track per day.
Packages are associated with payment, but also can be associated with itineraries and zoom meeting links.
Zoom meetings are configured by a host, and the host cannot be changed.
The host cannot leave the meeting even if assign someone else as host.
However, We can have an alternate host, but only configured inside zoom.
So today, I'll create an event.
That event will have 3 packages.
Each package will have a zoom meeting done through ML.
Each zoom meeting will have a diff host done through ML.
Each zoom meeting will need a diff alternate host, but must be done in zoom.

Practice Session 3 for PNSQC2021

If I can get this working correctly, this is the goal for today. mostly back-end stuff.
we will have 3 simultaneous sessions.
you will register for a certain package, 1-3, with each package associated with a different zoom meeting.
when you register, hopefully, you'll get a notice of the zoom meeting info associated with that package.
we hopefully can practice having Cody as the host via the pnsqchost zoom ID, and configure alternative host inside zoom itself, or do the assign as co-host during the actual zoom meeting and have Cody leave the meeting (as a test).
We should start forming up all the directions for the moderator in this meeting. I have some in the spreadsheet previously shared. see table below.

Probably want some type of sponsor slide in between sessions - Each moderator needs general slide deck with conference logistics and sponsor logos, Work the stuff in between sessions - address overall conf stuff, what next after break, join us for xxx. Can be partially guided with an agenda slide.

Having a count down between sessions is helpful to keep people in sync - zoom has this capability

Each session will need a person for the introduction, manage questions and to call for help from the tech if needed

Admn (moderator) account needs to have/set full control over the session - mute participants, block sharing...general admin hygiene this will probably fall to the session moderator.

Be ready to share the video if the speaker doesn't show up

How does Memberleap verify that someone clicking on the Zoom link is the correct person?
Memberleap just sends links out to the email addr who registered? What is some other person gets the link?

Second to last practice session:

Free keynotes package up on member leap as a registration option
Review the first draft of slides for moderators
Review roles and responsibilities for going live those 3 days
Check on zoom links in the calendar invites - possible bug found by Moss
