Program Committee,
On behalf of Chris, Anne and I,
We’ve always had a subtle “Late Submissions” policy for EclipseCon, but never really published it. We thought it would be a good idea to actually put it in writing and publish it:
Late Submissions
The main goal of the EclipseCon program committee is to create a high-quality, compelling program. To that end, the Program Committee will accept late submissions for the program. However, it is also the goal to have the program mostly selected by December 7 and finalized by December 12. Therefore late submissions are given lower priority unless they are of exceptional quality, or fill a gap in the technical program.
Bottom line – yes, you can submit late – but it gets a lower precendence, risks being left behind in the selection, and needs to be damn compelling or fill in a gap in the program to really have a chance. We’ve posted this on the EclipseCon website.
