I think the 25th can be a huge success with livestreams and speakers that are informed and charismatic. We need to make sure the right people are speaking to any serious press, and we need to make sure the event has unedited coverage. We have bright people on our side, and we need to showcase that. People that can really speak on the topic. Further, anyone planning on speaking should really rewatch all of the past press interactions and know how to respond to predictable questions.
Place more ideas and suggestions in the comments, and lets make sure our organizers are prepared to defend themselves.
