The way I've worded the web page is that Dec 15th is when the
submissions are accepted or declined, i.e., the decision date.
It's not the drop-dead date for submission to arrive. I've left the
submission arrival date a bit vague - perhaps you all would like a
different wording on the submissions page?
(http://www.eclipsecon.org/2006/CallForParticipation.do)
But what I'm asking you all if you would change is the decision
date, not the submission date.
Dwight,
What was the decision date last year? If the submission date as T-90
days, was the decision date T-60 days? Or ??
For EclipseCon 2005, the conference was Feb
28-Mar 3 and the submission acceptance date was Dec 1st (90 days before
the conference). For 2006, the conference is Mar 20-23, so it would
make sense for the submission acceptance date to be Dec 15th to allow
more time for quality content to appear. Any comments on this?
Moving it to the Dec 15 leaves little time before XMas for a review.
It was already tough last year with the Dec 1 date.
I would keep it Dec 1.
