[Session proposals](https://www.agu.org/Ocean-Sciences-Meeting/Pages/Present) are open for the [Ocean Sciences Meeting](https://www.agu.org/Ocean-Sciences-Meeting), to be held in New Orleans, LA in Feb. 2024!

Are any Pangeo folks interested in hosting a session or town hall? Past Pangeo activities at OSM have generally been creative/workshop-style sessions, and it does not look like that is an option for this year. [Session formats](https://www.agu.org/Ocean-Sciences-Meeting/Pages/Schedule-Events/Session-Formats) appear to be limited to:

- Oral sessions
- E-lightning sessions
- Poster sessions
- Town halls

The TOPS team is also thinking about pitching some sessions around open science, including potentially on open data/software. Happy for folks to be involved in those, or for Pangeo folks to take the lead.

Some very broad ideas of sessions that Pangeo could run:

- Cloud-native ocean science
- Software for handling big data
- Town hall to bring the Pangeo community together

For reference, a couple of those previous events were:

- [Open Ocean Science](https://discourse.pangeo.io/t/pangeo-at-ocean-sciences-meeting-2022/2259) (virtual innovative session)
- Pangeo Workshop at OSM 2020 (I don’t have a link to this, but it was a hands-on demo of Pangeo Cloud)
