Hi Klaus, this is really great news - I agree wrt 1 and 2 - my worry is that we won't be able to run through all papers in the time we have available. I wonder if it is worth having 2 symposiums and 1 note? Si. PS I check my email at 08:00 and 17:00 GMT. If you require a faster response please include the word 'fast' in the subject line. ======================= Simon Harper http://simon.harper.name/about/card/ University of Manchester (UK) Web Ergonomics Lab - Information Management Group http://wel.cs.manchester.ac.uk On 02/11/2012 08:50, Klaus Miesenberger wrote: > Dear colleagues, > > unfortunatly Sandy blew away our telco this week - I do hope that > Simon and others are not affected too much by this. > > Following our timeline we have to notify submitters about acceptance > or decline of papers for the symposium - that's what I wanted to > discuss on Wednesday. > > Here is a proposal, following a chair meeting we did in Linz, for both > acceptance and symposium structure (numbers refer to the list attached) > > A) Acceptance our of 17 submissions > 1) Clear accept for 11 papers: 8, 11, 2, 3, 9, 12, 13, 17, 4, 16, 10 > 2) Tend to accept for 3 papers: 6, 5, 15 > 3) Not accept for 3 papers: 1, 7, 14 > > Our suggestion is to accept 1) and 2) due to the following reasons: > a) They all provide very valuable information on a new topic; pushing > this field as a new research area merits to include a broad perspective > b) It is hard to evaluate on basis of short abstracts.
