Acronym fault.
s/LISA/JESA/
Now if you want to submit material consideration for LISA *2016*, go for it. :-)
In the meantime, JESA could use content submissions.
Shameless LISA 2015 plug:
I'm on the LISA 2015 Program Committee. We met (May 30), the program is set.
And it's a damn good one at that, we scored some great speakers and content.
Make your travel plans, get funding, etc.

PS:
This is the first election since 2006 where I'm not a member of the Leadership
Committee. Please give the LC a break. Like the rest of us, they are
volunteers. If you think you can do a better job, please step up to the plate
and volunteer - for it or any other LOPSA task.
