Thanks Chaoqun.  I suggest that you wait three more days for any further feedback, and post the message to ASIS&T and SIGMETRICS on the 10th.
Jonathan.

Dear Jonathan and all,


Many apologizes that I did not receive your earlier email. Thanks Jonathan for your suggestions and comments on th.e paper contest announcement draft. I have put your draft into a google doc so that other officers can read and edit easily.

Dear all,
=C2=A0
I have looked at the Google doc on Web-site and on most points we seem to h=
ave reached a strong consensus.
=C2=A0
To me there are only two points that need further clarification:
(a)=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 Officers: Four of the officers have=
provided an email address and affiliation; Stasa and Chaoqun have not prov=
ided an email address or affiliation, and Dietmar has provided only an emai=
l address in (which is in different format from that of the other officers)=
.=C2=A0 I suggest that the Web-site provides similar information on each of=
ficer.
(b)=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 Email list: Whilst we acknowledge the hos=
ting of the SIGMETRICS list, we do not acknowledge the moderator.=C2=A0 I s=
uggest that we also acknowledge Gretchen Whitney.=20
=C2=A0
Angela, could you please draft a prototype for the Web-site?
=C2=A0
Best regards,
Jonathan.

Dear all,
?
Encouraged by the fact that I received my message to list, I am sending again the messages I sent earlier this week.
?
Thanks Judit fort your information on conference systems; EasyChair seems particularly attractive, as is free and used by ISSI.? Thanks Dick for clarifying the rules regarding submissions to the AM; I am pleased that what we have in mind does not preclude people from submitting to the AM.? Thanks Cassidy for contacting I have emailed KT regarding SIG funding, and for offering to let us know when you have a response.
?
Best regards,
Jonathan.

Dear All,
If ASIST does not provide us with a submission website, we can apply for an account on the easychair conference system. It is free and quite widely used, and rather easy to set up (http://www.easychair.org/). There are many other free conference submission and reviewing systems, but this is the one I am most acquainted with. ASIST uses the START system, which is not free.
Regards,
Judit

Dear all,
?
Here is my feedback on the latest draft of the Google doc:
(1)?? Initial paragraph: We have omitted to describe anything about ourselves or refer the reader to our Web-site; conferences often do one or both of these.
(2)?? Selection -> There will be up to 3 winners: I responded to this in my feedback on point (1), posted to this list earlier today.
(3)?? Selection -> These experts will place emphasis on originality of presented concept(s), place emphasis on originality of presented concept(s), applicability to the qualification criteria set forth, practical applications of the concept, and suitability for presentation at the ASIS&T Meeting: Whilst it may be useful to specify the selection criteria I think that any the selection criteria should be fully debated in this list.? As a full discussion will add to the number of ongoing issues and could delay the announcement of this contest, I suggest that we omit this sentence from the initial call, but add a section on this to subsequent calls once we have reached a consensus.?
(4)?? Prizes-> each winner: If we adopt the approach in my feedback on point (1), posted to this list earlier today, we would need to change our reference to ?each winner?.?
(5)?? Prizes -> first paragraph: As I see it we are unlikely to get more from ASIS&T than the amount we asked for, so it is important that the total cost does not exceed the amount for which Cassidy applied.
(6)?? Prizes -> The selected winner will be notified via e-mail and will be expected to present their paper at the SIGMET Workshop at the 2011 ASIS&T annual conference, where a formal recognition of the winner and presentation of the award will be made.? Award winners will be required to sign a presenter agreement. The SIG/MET reserves the right, at its discretion, to not to present an award: I am not happy about this requirement for two reasons: (a) we are not offering to fund the attendance of the workshop, so how can we penalize a strong candidate for not having the funds to attend and (b) it is not certain that we will be holding a workshop, as this we have not received approval (to quote Dietmar ?we won't know before late June if it's accepted?).
(7)?? Format: We have not stipulated the expected length of the submissions; typically conference submissions do so
(8)?? Submission and Deadline -> The research should be original works and has not been submitted to or published by other conferences (but not ASIS&T) or journals by the time it is submitted: I responded to this in my feedback on point (2), posted to this list earlier today.
(9)?? Submission and Deadline -> April 30, 2011: I responded to this in my feedback on point (4), posted to this list earlier today.
(10) Submission and Deadline: We have omitted to describe the procedure for submitting (it would be very helpful if ASIS&T could set up a site for receiving our submissions ? does anyone know if this is possible?); typically conferences provide this.
?
Best regards,
Jonathan.
