Thanks Christopher for sharing your thoughts. We actually did what you mention for the last workshop, not during the review process, but after accepted papers (abstracts back then) were posted online. No one wrote a comment on a posted abstract as far as I know. In principle I see nothing against repeating this, even if I expect that again there will be virtually no comments. Perhaps if we have full papers online there will be more discussion. I think one difference may be that all of us are used to commenting on short, easily digestible, content online. Reading a scholarly paper, even an extended abstract, and commenting on it requires a more serious commitment. But then those with that level of commitment should anyway attend the workshop, so I guess they tend to reserve their arguments for the workshop itself. Maybe in addition to the papers themselves we can have say a blog of some form where anyone can post an opinion piece, shorter, and easier to grasp, maybe more provocative, relating to the topics of the workshop, but not so academic - such pieces may incite more comments... and could generate useful discussions in parallel to the more academic part of the event. Anyway, these are just thoughts... it's easy to come up with ideas, it's difficult to make them really work. As for those asking whether there are news about the event itself, the only news is that the venue is still not confirmed. I said Stanford in an earlier email. That may not be the final venue after all. We hope to resolve this soon, I understand that it has taken a while. On Jan 8, 2009, at 10:32 AM, Christopher Adams wrote: Giorgios, |
