About Emacs APAC

We are Emacs enthusiasts who live in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) time-zone. We meet every fourth Saturday of the month (<%%(diary-float t 6 4)> in Org mode).

Talks

We usually have free flowing discussions around new Emacs packages / features discovered, issues faced, experiences, usage tips, resources for further learning etc. These are related to GNU Emacs and its variants. Sometimes people also share their screens and give demos of their Emacs setup and use.

If you would like to give a talk (20 minutes maximum), please send an email to TODO with the details.
