Isn't it puzzling! Why does anyone--let alone the organizers of the 
latest SW conference after a decade of SW research--have to be "nudged" 
and "hassled" to "get their data out", if the benefits of publishing SW 
data were so compelling?... All it takes is a <link rel="alternative">; 
so we can't blame it on the lack of usable tools. Is there an 
explanation for this?

Or maybe this is a non-issue. Maybe it isn't critical for SW conferences 
to get their data out at all. Is it?
