Hi,Let me first state that, I don't know anything about organizing a conference nor all of the variables involved to make it successful. Hence, this is just a request, a proposal if you will to see your position on what will it take for the conference to request research papers submissions in Web friendly formats.
I have the following in mind and I hope you can share your views on it publicly. For the final submission:
* Accept a document in XHTML+RDFa (+ other technologies) as well as in PDF.* Same as above, while the print stylesheet conforms to desired presentation (e.g., ACM, LNCS)
* Like above, but a public URL of the document. For example, a link to the research, which may be along the lines of a blog post.
Needless to say at this point, if I'm not getting ahead of myself, many agree that something along the lines of HTML+RDFa would be ideal but we perceive there are some difficulties to get there. Until the perception and the solutions is ironed out e.g., [1], we can still work towards it any way.
I would like to know whether you can at least allow Web friendly formats from here on end. A shift in that direction would be invaluable IMHO.
