** Nominally, when a presentation is in progress, the moderator will mute everyone, except for the speaker. 
** '''To un-mute, press "*7"''' ... '''To mute, press "*6"''' (please mute your phone, especially if you are in a noisy surrounding, or if you are introducing noise, echoes, etc. into the conference line.) 
** we will usually save all questions and discussions till after all presentations are through. You are encouraged to jot down questions onto the chat-area in the mean time (that way, they get documented; and you might even get some answers in the interim, through the chat.) 
** During the Q&A / discussion segment (when everyone is muted), '''If you want to speak''' or have questions or remarks to make, '''please raise your hand''' (virtually) '''by clicking on the "hand button"''' (lower right) on the chat session page.
