[MEI-L] Music encoding conference

[Axel Teich Geertinger]

Hi all,

sorry for being slow, but I am a little confused now. I asked Perry last week about what to submit for a poster. What confused me then was the Word template.Until then I had also thought an abstract was enough, but the template did not seem to be made for an abstract submission. Perry answered:

Hello, Axel,
You have options -- 
  - a one-page image of the poster and a page of text explaining it or
  - a two-page paper (with or without) the actual poster image.
In any case, you can think of this as a "proposal for a poster" rather than an actual poster.  In other words, once your submission is accepted, you can change the content.
Does that help?
Cheers,

p.

So now we've prepared the text for a poster, but I gave up the idea of submitting also a paper, because I understood I would have to submit a (more or less) completed paper by December 31st, which I couldn't. The question now is whether I should try to cook up some abstract in a hurry or not... 
Anyway, if I do: What is the Word template for? The abstract is to be entered directly in the submission form, so perhaps the template is not to be used at all until the final submission (after the conference, perhaps)?

Wishing you all a merry Christmas,
Axel

Hi Andrew,

Thanks for pointing that out. For the deadline, we expect an abstract of the paper, that is an explanation of its planned content, and why this is important for the conference. You don't have to upload the final poster (as you don't have to upload final papers by now). Please notice also that the provided word counts are maximum numbers. You don't have to write 1000 words, when the intention is clear enough spelled with just 400… We just wanted to be nice to our reviewers ;-)

Hope this helps,
Johannes
