Abstract

Techniques for announcing conference attendance changes in multiple languages and in a minimally disruptive form are described. An embodiment may include batching announcement events for a time period. The time period may be specific, or may be determined by the length of an ongoing announcement. At the end of the batching time, an announcement of the batched events may be streamed to the conference participants. Multiple batched events may be summarized into one announcement. Multiple access points to a conference may be provided, where each access point provides announcements in a different language. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
