Invitation to a virtual Q&A Session with Trustees on 05/09 1pm UTC

Dear RoboCuppers, some time has passed since RoboCup in Salvador and we hope you, your teams and robots all had a safe trip back home. During this RoboCup, we Trustees decided to re-imaging RoboCup and we shared this vision with the committees and the community in various forms during RoboCup. And while there was time for discussion in different settings and groups, we also saw how many open questions there still were during the Symposium. Some may have already been clarified with your league committees in the meantime - many of these committees worked tirelessly since RoboCup to meet with the teams, share updates and gather league opinions. But we also heard that many of you still have questions for us Trustees to address. We would hence like to invite you to a digital Q&A with a group of Trustees - an extended version of the question section we had during the Symposium panel on the Future of RoboCup. The session will happen on Friday, September 5 at 1pm UTC. Here is a link to participate: https://herts-ac-uk.zoom.us/j/97476995141?pwd=vCfWGzm1ckwXb6qg6NTH4xEWRHJPP… Meeting ID: 974 7699 5141 Passcode: 253164 We would like to gather some questions beforehand in order to group similar ones together and bring them into an order. We would hence appreciate if you could submit your questions beforehand using this link: https://cloud.robocup.org/apps/forms/s/JgMnpff2wZ4E9ke7ysnXYA84 Please submit your questions by Monday, September 1. We will also try to leave time at the end of the meeting for spontaneous questions from the audience that can be submitted via the chat. We are also planning to release a consolidated Q&A document with a summary of the questions asked during the Symposium panel and the virtual meeting afterwards. Kind regards Alessandra & Maike (for the Board of Trustees)
