Yes and no. MIT Press is not directly publishing the Proceedings; MIT
Press is co-sponsoring the conference. The print and electronic
Proceedings will (probably) be done by XML and SGML vendors. After the
conference, what will probably happen is that a few of the better papers
will be asked to expand a 30 minute presentation into a full formal paper.
Think of the conference as a breeder for the Journal.
I was also very serious about personally inviting this list to really
consider the journal. This list is where the practioners post and lurk.
We want both theory and down-in-the-trenches experience. I think this list
has both in abundance.
