@Pierre-Marie Pédrot any new info about it? (https://github.com/coq/coq/wiki/Coq-Users-and-Developers-Workshop-2020)
I imagine it will not be a in-person meeting for many reasons. But shall we still save the days on our agenda?
If there are enough people interested, we could maintain it. But I do find that if we do it remotely, it'll be way to much similar to a standard working group to be really worthwile.
the main value I think most participants expected from CUDW was access to advice/mentorship from Coq devs for their research projects (such as a Coq plugin, a Coq enhancement, etc.)
this to me is very different from a standard working group. If it will go virtual, one replacement could be to allow people to book remote sessions with Coq devs for specific projects with concrete aims such as finishing a PR
@Pierre-Marie Pédrot Can we have a clear view of the current status quo? Can we free the budget initially allocated to CUDW2020?
I answered to Yves privately today, and the answer is positive indeed.
We'll hold it remotely instead
I don't have much time right now, so I don't know whether it could be held on the originally scheduled week
but the organization should be very light so the only thing we need is just a proper communication channel
I've to decide what to do on the week 22-26 June now.

If it is likely to be postponed, I believe I'd better schedule something else on that week. At worse I'll only attend sporadically.
I find it unlikely that it would happen on this week given the lack of information so far. But in any case, I too won't be able to attend full days during this week.
would indeed be much better to immediately fix a later span of dates in that case
I suggest October or November.
Let's postpone then, we're not in a hurry. The date was chose due to constraints on physical presence, and since we're doing it remotely they are non sequitur.
Just a remark: a lot of events are being rescheduled to next autumn these days. So if CUDW20 is really going to happen in 2020, even as a virtual event, it would be worth fixing the date as soon as possible, preferably before the summer break.
I guess the event was cancelled? https://github.com/coq/coq/wiki/Coq-Users-and-Developers-Workshop-2020
Postponed to july 5/6th according to https://github.com/coq/coq/wiki/Coq-Call-2020-06-03
5th is a sunday, are we really doing the workshop then?
That's the coq workshop, which indeed starts on sunday, and partially overlaps with the hott workshop.
The event is postponed to some time this autumn, and it will be held remotely
Yes, that's a bit stupid that the Coq workshop is happening partially over a week-end, but those dates were decided by the IJCAR organizers when they still thought it would be a physical event.
Might be good to make a note on the wiki then about postponement.
I've just edited the wiki
@Pierre-Marie Pédrot do we have any idea on the new dates?
not yet, I am in official vacations right now
I'll build up a doodle to settle for a date
