revised versions
by Jean Utke 08 Feb '06

08 Feb '06

Hi, of the four papers assigned to me I see so far 2 revised version uploaded (Hascoet and Kowarz). For Kreaseck we had settled on the 13th and with Bartlett I just had an interesting phone conversation. He told me he didn't realize he had assigned himself as the corresponding author and therefore had tacitly ignored my e-mails until this morning. Supposedly they are working on the revision now and will upload something later tonight. Just FYI. Talk to you tomorrow. jean -- Jean Utke Argonne National Lab./MCS utke(a)mcs.anl.gov phone: 630 252 4552 cell: 630 363 5753

Re: [Org-ad-workshop] Date(s) for final version
by Forth Dr Shaun 07 Feb '06

07 Feb '06

Dear Paul, Can I just point out that we gave you notification of acceptance on or about 23rd January, at least a week ahead of the "official notification" you received direct from the organisers. The paper rejection rate for the conference was I think something like 60-70%. In many workshops and the main track this can only have been achieved by pretty harsh rejection criteria. We have tried to be a little more generous in order to keep the workshop alive, less than 8 papers and it would have been killed, but this does mean we have to spend a little longer checking the revised papers than we should have done. The organisers were always going to have been struggling with the original 7th receive and 10th accept deadline. Since we didn't know about the extension to the 19th until we'd sent out our acceptance then we decided to keep the 7th as it was with the view that this would give us time to clear up problems with any of the authors who were struggling to get the corrections done! We do not want to be unreasonable. I've already checked with Uwe and, provided Chris or Jean don't object, perhaps you could make a considered review of the referee's comments for the Kreaseck paper and report back to us by Weds 8th 14:00 GMT, via Jean if you need to talk, with progress to date and an assurance that you are able to address all issues. We are having a review meeting for the revised papers later that afternoon. If you would then send the fully revised version on to us by Friday 10th in time that Jean can review over the weekend then we can get back to you with any hopefully minor (e.g. formatting) issues on the 13th/14th. I hope this answers the questions you raised and gives you the time to make the changes requested.

Sandhu paper

Just to let you know I have had a nightmare contacting Adrian Sandhu and only established communication at the end of last week. He's just confirmed he's happy to make the changes but I've said the 10th will do for the re-submission.

Folks, there was consensus that Wednesday would work out well. However, I would like to move to 5pm my time.

Dear Paul, DEFINITIVE REPLY Sorry for the confusion arising from the Atlantic time difference. Jean has already indicated to you he is happy to go with the 13th - so we'll go with that. Unfortunately I didn't see the email where Jean made the decision - hence my rapid action this morning with the deadline looming. He's obviously more generous that me! Jean is obviously aware of your progress so hopefully we can have a productive meeting tomorrow.
