12-14 October 2022

Berlin, Germany

The application phase is now closed.

The current version of the agenda, including the list of lightning talks, is in the file Info/Agenda.pdf in this repo

First the official stuff: the current regulations (as of October 1st) in the state of Berlin are quite lax, and no specific restrictions are in place for large meetings. FFP2 masks are required in public transport (and hospitals but we really hope you won't need that).

And now a message from the organizers: We know that the incidence of COVID infections is going up and we really don't want to have the UGM turn into a super-spreader event, so we are asking you for help. We would like you to think of the health of the other people at the meeting. If you have any doubts about whether or not you are infected, please test yourself and wear a mask the entire time you're in the conference space (except when eating and drinking). We will provide self-tests to participants who could not test themselves before coming.

Needless to say: if you have an active infection you should not come to the conference space; let Greg or Floriane know via email or on discord and we will send you the zoom links so that you can join virtually.

Hopefully everyone is vaccinated, so anyone who does end up getting infected at the UGM (and we really, really hope that there are none) is unlikely to have a serious case.
