 I've tried my best to find all talks that are related to QEMU, not sure
 whether I've correctly identified all of them. If you are aware of any
 other talk that should be in the list here, please let me know.

You may perhaps add

"What's new in the next version of the Virtio standard"
(https://fosdem.org/2018/schedule/event/virtio/)
by Jens Freimann

And also point out the rest of virtualization related talks:
https://fosdem.org/2018/schedule/track/virtualization_and_iaas/

There was also an interesting talk about "Using KVM to sandbox
firmwares from the Linux Kernel"
(https://fosdem.org/2018/schedule/event/hwenablement_using_kvm_to_sandbox_firmware/),
although it is further away from qemu, it is worth it.

the initial list looks fine, so either way

That's already a great list, but please add those that Marc-André mentioned.

Thanks for working on qemu.org!

Sure, I can add them ... actually, there are even some more talks
related to KVM , e.g. the one from Vitaly:

 https://fosdem.org/2018/schedule/event/vai_kvm_on_hyperv/

or related to Xen:

 https://fosdem.org/2018/schedule/event/vai_pci_emulation/

But the problem is: Where to draw the line? E.g. there was also a talk
about DOSEMU2 which can now use KVM, too. And if we include the lower
layer, should the list also include the upper layers like libvirt?
oVirt? KubeVirt? ... Well, I'd say since this blog post is for the QEMU
blog, we should really limit it to talks that are at least partly about
using or improving QEMU directly. So I'd maybe include the virtio talk,
but things that only affect KVM should maybe rather go into a KVM blog
somewhere else? (www.linux-kvm.org does not have a blog yet, does it?)

No, it doesn't.  You're right, Vitaly and Roger's talks do not have much
to do with QEMU so I think it's okay to draw the line at Jens's, plus
include a link to the VaI devroom.

Thanks,
