Dear Programme Committee

Jonny and I did our weekly walkover of the status on the conference programme. We are happy to report that progress towards a final programme continues, but there are still some bits and pieces missing here and there. 

I have added a page for lightning talks (https://portal.nordu.net/spaces/NDN2026/pages/328368130/Lightning+Talks) and I suggest we keep track of them there when they come in. 

Susanne: 
- What is the status regarding registration of the speakers that we have confirmed? It seems that some of our speakers are getting back to the person who invited them asking about registration. I can see you have made additions to the session pages, so actually all the information may be available there.

Licia: 
- Find the last speaker for the Enabling Access Session to talk about enabling access for EOSC and EuroHPC
- Contact speaker from University Alliance for presenting in the Educational Interop Session

Bruno:
- Follow up on the possibility of persuading Neha Manjunath to present

Anne Sofie:
- Follow up on the possibility of having Jeanette Nilsson to present in the Data Demands Session
- Inform Bo Bai that we are in the happy situation that our programme is full, which means that we unfortunately only can offer him a lightning talk

Ingimar
- Invite Gudmundur to join the happy gang at the Future of NRENs panel

Jonny:
- Follow up on a speaker from the Royal SE Lib to present in The Community we Serve Session
- Inform Hossein and Jörg from Karlstad that we are in the happy situation that our programme is full, which means that we unfortunately only can offer them a lightning talk

Josva:
- Contact Inder and ask if he is made progress on finding a speaker on quantum networks. If he hasn’t, we will instead have two long presentation in the T&F + Quantum session (the two presentations are two person presentations each).
- Contact Bent Thomsen and see if he or one of his colleagues are willing and able to come and present at the Sustainability session about energy considerations when writing code.
- Contact Martin regarding his participation in The Future of NRENs panel


All the best,
   Josva
