It is nice to hear this update regarding the status of the WSC, and good to know that it is happening as scheduled. I might point out, however, that it would behoove the organizers to inform those who have submitted papers and/or panels *whether or not their papers and/or panels are accepted*. It would be a shame for the conference to happen as scheduled, but have no one turn up, due to confusion regarding the status of individual papers. In any case, I will be there! Sam Grimes
