two quick links about cons

At SyFyWire, Small, But Mighty: How Local Cons Are Made. As I said on Twitter, I'm glad to see local fan-run cons being highlighted, but it's pretty weird that there's no mention of anything older than a decade or of the whole community more-or-less (sometimes much less) associated with SMOFs, WorldCon, etc?

Arisia is running a "Reconciliation" programming track; I assume the title is drawing from, e.g., South Africa's Truth and Reconciliation Commission. I hope those who are attending and participating report back. (I am cautiously hopeful, on looking at it; but logistics don't work for me to come at this point.)

I am going but not sure how much of that track I will see. I have six panels.
