  1. Note that full papers, not abstracts, are due by April 1 for the two open slots at the conference.

  2. Why is it that a “recent” Ph.D. is defined as “within 15 years of receiving a Ph.D.”? At some institutions said “recent Ph.D. would be 5 years from early retirement. Seems to be far from “recent”.
