Dear all, Following Shawn's announcement of the Call for Papers for the User Modelling Symposium I have also created a wiki page with a distribution list for the call. http://www.w3.org/WAI/RD/wiki/Distribution_Table_for_UM4A Please take care filling this out when you circulate the CfP to avoid cross-postings. Thank's in advance.

User modeling is an approach for > generating and adapting user interfaces to address particular user needs > and preferences. The goal of the symposium is to analyze different methods > and implementations of user modeling and their potential usage for > improving accessibility for people with disabilities. This includes the > design, creation, storage, and usage of user models, in particular in web > browsers, applications, authoring tools, and other aspects of the Web. > > We invite research and position papers of about 1,000 words. Submissions > will be peer-reviewed. > > Accepted papers will be published online in an attributable form as part > of the symposium proceedings. Authors of accepted papers will be invited to > participate in the symposium panel. > > *For more information about the symposium and submissions, please see*: > - User Modeling for Accessibility main page: <http://www.w3.org/WAI/RD/** > 2013/user-modeling/ <http://www.w3.org/WAI/RD/2013/user-modeling/>> > - Call for Papers: <http://www.w3.org/WAI/RD/**2013/user-modeling/cfp.html<http://www.w3.org/WAI/RD/2013/user-modeling/cfp.html> > > > > If you are interested in contributing to this Symposium, please submit > your paper by: > *6 June 2013* > > Feel free to circulate this message to other lists; please avoid > cross-postings where possible. > > --------- > RDWG Background: > > The Research and Development Working Group (RDWG) helps: > - increase accessibility considerations in research on web technologies, > including mainstream research, > - suggest research questions that may contribute to web accessibility > research projects, > - inform development of web accessibility solutions, > - decrease the number of potential barriers in future web-related > technologies. > > RDWG Symposia bring together researchers, practitioners, and users with > disabilities interested in a particular aspect of web accessibility to > advance research and development in that area.
