Call for papers
Thanks to an incredibly successful 2010 issue, we are very proud to
announce the sixth edition of the Review of April Fool's day
Transactions (RAFT'2011). Not only RAFT is now widely recognised by our
community, it is today expanding its sphere of influence beyond its
traditionnal borders, to reach new--and exciting!--areas of science. For
this reason, we invite you to submit a paper, by March 10th, 2011, to
the RAFT Program Committee for consideration at the RAFT'2011 'Beyond
Frontiers' edition. The tremendous investment we've been pouring into
RAFT for years has paid off, and with your support, we plan to bring our
publishing standards even further this year.
Themes
In the same spirit as in the previous years' issues, we demand that the
submitted papers follow strict rigour, technical soundness, originality,
humour, funniness, weirdness and comprehensibleness. We greatly
recommend nonsense, Gibberish, gobbledygook jargon and blah blah. Topics
are entirely up to the authors, but a rude scientific treatment should
be inflicted to the matter in question.
Instructions
Papers must be submitted via email to either Rodolphe Héliot
([email protected]) or Antoine Zimmermann
([email protected]) and should fit one of the following formats:
LATEX or any kind of formatted text (e.g., Micro$oft Word, RTF, HTML,
etc). Paper language can be either French or English.
