Bad combination of factors.  However, speakers are encouraged to apply
soon.

If the only reason that a speaker has to not confirm yet is the
sponsorship, then you should confirm and say you are applying for
sponsorship.  We will coordinate with the papers committee.

Hi !

I'm a little confused, or perhaps just unfamiliar with this process.

How can the deadline to request sponsorship be on June 3rd
when the deadline for speakers to confirm their attendance is
already June 2nd ?

Cheers,
