I started the poll to gauge community interest in the current activity suggestions. Polls here will only allow up to 10 choices so the other 6 couldn't be included in the poll question but are listed in the poll thread. I re-sorted the list and excluded from the poll those 6 activities we would most likely offer regardless of community feedback. The poll will be open the rest of this month.

Note: I changed the VN Peer Review activity to Individual VM research paper presentations. I will probably wait a week and then, if it looks like there is interest in this activity, post a Google survey for researchers to express their interest and readiness in presenting on VM Day (polling options are limited here to a single question so I have to move that survey offsite). If neither the community nor the researchers express sufficient interest, we can drop this from the activity list. In case we move forward with this activity and too many researchers express an interest, the researcher survey will indicate a limit may need to be set and a review process put in place as to how many and which researchers can be listed in the 2024 VM Day program, in which case we can then figure out how best to address such a review.
Stay tuned. I will follow-up again here soon.
