07:17:23 peadar -> I believe if anyone has
questions please speak up
07:20:02 saradavila -> Question for
Conference Chair and Co-Chair: This year conference
acceptence/rejection process was handled in a manner I felt was very
unprofessional. I'd like to know how the conference will address this
issue in the future to make the process more personal, and show more
respect for all canidates submitting papers for the call.

07:24:32 chosunbimbo -> @Sara I think you
have to take into consideration there were in excess of 300 proposals
received by the program team - While they were form letters that people
received they were professional and in line with any other rejection or
acceptance letter you might have received from any other organisation
07:25:55 chosunbimbo -> This will be the
first year in A LONG TIME there have been contests for various positions
07:26:05 chosunbimbo -> Am I the only one
here?
07:26:06 chosunbimbo -> Hello
07:26:12 chosunbimbo -> Is this thing on?
07:26:21 peadar -> its here
07:26:22 chosunbimbo -> *tap* *tap*
07:27:07 peadar -> I can however say having
recieved one of those letters it was not inline with what was sent to
me last year
07:27:20 chosunbimbo -> rejection letter?
07:27:36 peadar -> was rejected last year
and accepted this year
07:30:08 chosunbimbo -> interesting - I got
one - but being on concomm I knew the same day that the mail went out
and paid it little attention - what did it say
07:31:08 peadar -> it required you to
download and check a full list of accepted proposals to see if you had
ben accepted or rejected
07:31:52 craignl -> I find Paedar's comment
on rejection/acceptance from year to year interesting. As someone who
participated in the vetting process, I was somewhat concerned that
there were no clear guidelines for vetting proposals. Having been part
of Conference planning teams, both international, that's one area the
Conference Committee might consider for improvment (sorry that I'm
veering a bit off topic).
07:32:52 craignl -> Sorry, the last sentence
should read '...both international and national'
07:33:06 peadar -> its a great point I just
worry that the way the notifications were handeld this year might
discourage presenters in the future
07:33:49 saradavila -> I've been a presenter
at the international for about five years. The acceptance/rejection
process this year was much different form last year.
07:34:05 saradavila -> This year to find out
if you were accepted or rejected you had to read a list of accepted
proposals.
07:34:18 saradavila -> Last year a form
letter was sent to presenters who had been accepted.
07:34:37 saradavila -> A seperate letter to
presenters who had been rejected, thanking them for time and
encouraging them to resubmit.
07:34:48 craignl -> Yes, usually when I have
made proposals to other international conferences I have usually gotten
a message courteously but clearly saying 'Yes' or 'No'
07:35:35 chosunbimbo -> Ah I see - I didn't
realise it was just one email to everyone who su
