1:23:09kakuhenMost CL implementations signal an error when a TEST and TEST-NOT key is supplied to FIND. I am unable to find where this behavior is documented in the specification (or cleanup issues like TEST-NOT-IF-NOT).
1:23:42kakuhenIs there any source for this? Or is this beahvior just a convention that implementations decided to adopt?
8:47:33selwynningare the author notifications going to be sent out soon?
8:48:14beachI thought you already know that your paper was accepted. No?
8:49:04hayleyI've also yet to receive a notification.
8:49:20beachSo how do you know that the paper is accepted?
8:51:06beachI see now that the notification was due yesterday. It may take a day or two more sometimes. There are situations where the program committee has a short debate.
8:51:29hayleyI don't. Did selwynning suggest otherwise before?
8:51:49beachThat was just the impression I got. I must have gotten the wrong one.
8:52:46beach"<selwynning> so it would be nice to know roughly when the invitations will be sent out"
8:53:18beachI took that to mean that selwynning had an accepted paper, but did not know whether an invitation to present it was going to be made.
8:55:00beachThe number of slots for paper presentations is limited. So if there is a large number of submissions, there could be tough decisions about which papers to reject, even if they are fairly good.
8:55:09selwynningi don't know if i have been accepted or not
8:55:39beachAgain, the date for author notification was yesterday, but it may take another few days.
8:56:17beachThere could also be a debate among members of the program committee if there is a strong disagreement between different referees of some paper.
8:56:43beachAnd, of course, there are frequently referees that hand in their reports late.
8:56:52beachSo then, they delay the entire process.
9:07:37beachOccasionally, a referee flakes out entirely. And then the program chair must decide whether two referees will be enough on some papers, or whether someone else can replace that person with very short notice.
