Dear all,

I will chime in with thanks, as well, for all of the very hard work that you all have done to bring the conference to this point. As Anne expressed in her email, this conference and adjudicating it has been and continues to be a work in progress. As long as we ask our colleagues to provide an array of forms of input and feedback (both qualitative and quantitative) in modes and contexts that for some are uncomfortable regardless of how guidelines and categories are structured to shape results, there will always be a wish for a more perfect outcome. That you are shaping such an exciting, compelling, and forward-thinking conference program from over 750 submissions deserves all of our gratitude and recognition for that effort.

The Executive Board would be grateful to read your recommendations when it comes time for your final report (many months in the future!)

Best wishes,

Diane

Dear members of the PC,

We have learned today that there will be no Buza Prize Award at this year’s conference.
Since that frees up a late (6 pm) slot in the conference schedule, this – while meaning that we are sadly missing out on an opportunity to celebrate the achievements of one of our colleagues – presents us with the opportunity to accept additional contributions by moving the Poster Presentation session originally scheduled for Wednesday afternoon (4-5.30 pm) to the time-slot originally reserved for the Buza Prize lecture at 6 pm (and possibly combining it with a drinks reception).

Upon consultation with Anne and Toma, we would therefor propose to accept 3 additional long papers, 20 additional short papers and 2 additional panels (filling up 7 additional sessions from 4-5:30 pm on Wednesday), so the updated numbers would be:

Long Papers: 108 submissions accepted with a cut-off at 77,3 points (45,96%)
Short Papers: 125 accepted with cut-off at 73,3 (42,81)
Posters: 112 accepted with cut-off at 64,0 (71,79%)
Panels: 16 accepted with cut-off at 85,0 (37,21%)
Workshops: 25 accepted with cut-off at 79,7 (75,75%)
The overall acceptance rate (with workshops) is 50,86%; without workshops 49,72%

Please let us know if you have any objections to this by tomorrow at 10 am CET, because we want to send the acceptance confirmations tomorrow at noon at the latest.

Kind regards,

Walter
(on behalf of Anne and Toma)
