[Sigmet-officers] first draft of student paper contest

Dear all,

I agree with Dietmar that the requirement for the consideration should 
be that "the research not be published by the time of presentation, 
and that the paper has not been submitted concurrently to the main 
meeting". However, I can see that some students might want to present at 
the main meeting. One way to go about that is to make an agreement with 
the poster session organizer of the main conference that the awarded 
papers get an automatic admission to the main conference poster session. 
After all, these papers will be reviewed by the panel of experts.

Best,
Stasa
