The core of your concerns were addressed over the past few years in different ways on this mailing list. When some posed the situation as a "technological" problem, I've created some templates and LNCS and ACM styles: https://github.com/csarven/linked-research Reached out to OCs, supervisors, and authors. They all have a part in this. Even wrote "manifestos": * http://csarven.ca/linked-research * http://csarven.ca/call-for-linked-research How about we try to solve a different problem? The one that I've posed: will SW/LD conferences encourage the community to eat their own dogfood for "papers"? We can certainly improve on whatever needs to be improved over time. The problem is that, if SW/LD technologies are not even welcome to share scientific knowledge at these conferences, it is irrelevant to worry about the technological comparisons. We have a Social Problem 101. Period. -Sarven http://csarven.ca/#i
