From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Ray Bryant Subject: Call for [More] Papers -- OT Date: Wed, 20 Nov 2002 10:30:45 -0600 Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org Message-ID: <3DDBB8B5.6D0F1CC8@engr.sgi.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Return-path: To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org, linux-fsdevel@vger.kernel.org List-Id: linux-fsdevel.vger.kernel.org I know this is off topic for this list, but the Freenix track of the 2003 Usenix Conference is looking for additional papers. The submission deadline was Monday, Nov 18th, but this has been extended to Monday, Nov 25th. Freenix is a special track within the Usenix Annual Technical Conference. The Freenix Program Committee is looking for papers about projects with a solid emphasis on nurturing the open source and freely-available software communities. Freenix papers should advance the state of the art of freely-redistributable software or otherwise provide useful information to those faced with deploying, selling, or using free software in the field. Freenix is also designed to assist an free or open source developer who has an interesting project but does not have experience in writing a conference paper and who would like to write such a paper. A member of the program committee will be assigned as a shepherd to assist in getting the paper ready for final publication. Submission is easy. While you can submit a full paper, you can also submit just an extended abstract. Freenix is thus well suited to projects that are currently underway but are not necessarily complete at the present time. Freenix is also a useful forum for you to increase the exposure of your free or open source project in order to obtain more users or collaborators.
