Navigation and Scheduling Note: Use the "Filter by Type" option to search for individual tracks (i.e. General, Information, Software, Transportation) as well as other types, such as plenary sessions and meal breaks. Please note that each track runs simultaneously. Track-specific sessions have distinct room locations, which will be updated shortly.
Maintenance is work, and any consideration of maintenance and maintainers must put considerations of labor front and center. This panel features advocates, organizers, and scholars who approach labor from a variety of perspectives. They share a passion for a deeper understanding of maintenance work--who performs it, under what conditions, and how it is recognized--as well as an appreciation that more robust forms of organizing and advocacy will lead to better outcomes for maintainers and for society as a whole.
