Polkadot Decoded is next week, 19-20 May. See the lineup and register here: decoded.polkadot.network
If you are running a node and use binaries from Github, please update your v0.9.0 node with the latest one attached in the v0.9.0 release. The original binary was built with incorrect compile flags. If you build from source, this does not affect you.
Note that with the latest runtime, there is no restriction on when you can issue a transaction to nominate validators (on Polkadot and Kusama). The nomination still won't take effect until the next available election, though.
Polkadot's first gathering since the network's launch and decentralization, Polkadot Decoded, is coming on Thursday, 3 December 2020! Register for free here: decoded.polkadot.network
