It's going to be hybrid ... I thought we actually managed to announce
that but forgot to put it on the front page. However, there is a
caveat: to minimize the risk of technical issues, we'd very much like
the content producers (speakers etc) to be in person. This won't be a
blanket requirement but we'll be unhappy if you try to have a MC with
mostly virtual speakers for instance.
