Hi all,

Anonymity is desirable but clearly not always feasible. No one will be disqualified for not being anonymous.

Just do the best you can to follow the guidelines!

Best,

J

Dear Warren, 

The idea is that the pdf document itself is anonymous, as there clearly is some data that asks for biographic information.

It is also clear that in some cases it will be inevitable or at least not ideal to make the application anonymous and in these cases we will ask reviewers to be impartial. 

So, the paper proposal I'm about to send with collaborators is mostly anonymous, but it refers to a github link where my secret idendity (and theirs) is revealed. I think the repository is a relevant reference to the work to be proposed, and that even if I hide it, some people closely related to the community will still know about who's involved... anyway, if you feel it should be hidden, I could do it, let me know.

Now, about the artistic proposals, are they supposed to be anonymous too? I can see the anonymous issue being important for paper reviewing, if you want the event to be more academic, but I don't think I've ever seen an event where you need to hide who you are, and sometimes that's not possible... so I'm just checking if this is really it.

thanks
