Besides being the primary W3C outlet for SW related topics, semantic-...@w3.org
is in my feeling also the primary outlet for the research community in this
area. So, spreading calls for papers there is as natural as using dbworld in
the databases community.
My feeling is that of we ban CfPs on this list, we cut one of the major
distribution channels for CfPs in our community.
One way around that (and I am not sure myself whether I'd be in favor of that
or just happy with the status quo) would be to - following the example of
dbworld - allow CfPs only to be sent through a (captcha-protected) Web form,
and block/ban CfPs from individual users only, but still distribute them
through this list.
just my two cents,
Axel

Dear all,
A perennial topic at W3C is whether we should allow calls for papers to be
posted to our mailing lists. Many argue, passionately, that we should not allow
any CfPs on any lists. It is now likely that this will be the policy, with any
message detected as being a CfP marked as spam (and therefore blocked).
Historically, the semantic-web and public-lod lists have been used for CfPs and
we are happy for this to continue *iff* you want it.
Last time we asked, the consensus was that CfPs were seen as useful, but it's
time to ask you again.
Please take a minute to answer the 4 question, no need for free text, survey at

Thanks
Phil.
