Thank you phoebe to offer this! I think it is a great initiative and help
for presenters.

Would it make sense to also send the email to all presenters directly? The
program committee or local team should have a database (I got several
emails directly from them).

I'm very sorry it probably coincides with something else, but I'll try to
make it at least partially.
