Hi Jeremy – the "tracks" on the Schedule page? You can filter by topic (hover over "topic" in the right sidebar of the schedule under "Filter by Type").

For viewing, once the conference starts, there will be a "Watch" page and you'll see tabs labeled with Plenary, Track 1, Track 2, Track 3, Track 4.

That is helpful. I also see

But it isn't clear what Track 1 means.

Do these somehow map to these?

Yes, slightly confusing. Those are just designations for which "stream" they'll be on. Once the conference starts, there will be a "Watch" page and you'll see tabs labeled with Plenary, Track 1, Track 2, Track 3, Track 4.

You can filter by those topics above, but they are just randomly assigned to the Tracks for viewing.

OK, so track just indicates what tab the presentation will be on.

Correct! Apologies for the confusion!

Got it. So what I am looking for will be in the Topic categories.

That helps. Thanks!

Thank you!! See you next week!!

OK. Sounds good.

OK. On the topic of the Topic drop down, is there an explanation of what the values there encompass? For instance how would I find out more about what "Experience Report" means?

We don't have any exact written guidance, but Experience Report typically refers to "The most successful or inspiring experience reports of DevOps transformations from large, complex organizations" while Subject Matter Expert would be "Experts from outside the community who we asked to teach us things that we believe are important to everyone in the community".
