Dear All,
Thanks for all your suggestions. I just did a few changes according to
your suggestions. Please find the new draft here:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1SKcg5sclZKHGstIHUCREoxcMnfb0tl1eNBfScT_iESE/edit
One question is that, are we still trying to make the submission
deadline before ASIS&T deadline as what we did for last year? I know
that providing feedback before ASIS&T deadline is great for students,
but will one month be too short for a student to finish a paper (as
the tentative deadline is April 8 )? Can we make our contest
submission deadline sometime in May? Any suggestions?
Best,
Chaoqun
