This is clear...

- Why do I have to submit a paper without knowing if I'm going to be select
for presentation?
- And why 7 months before of the conference?

It looks to me quite strange...


Previous FOSS4G's had abstract review by the academic committee
and selected authors were asked to submit full papers closer to
the conference dates.

I see that we do not have an academic committee in place for FOSS4G 2013
and I agree with Maxi that the submission 1 Feb 2013 deadline for 
FOSS4G-2013

Academic track is too early.

Thanks for the discussion, and I can imagine that there might be a risk 
involved if somebody decides to make a submission.


But that's the way reviewed contributions are going to be published.

7 months before the conference is not early, if we are lucke, we can 
handle the review, selection, publishing process in time.

Dear Dr. Beher,
apologize me for this question, but it is not clear to me if at this stage
you are asking to submit an abstract for evaluation or a full paper for
evaluation.

In last years, generally I submitted an abstract, then if selected for
presentation in academic track I where asked for a full paper,
and then if selected I had to go trough a review process by the editors.

Is it this the case, or rules have changed?

Regards,
Massimiliano
