The CFP for SODA 2007 is out (thanks, Jeff). The humungous size of the geometry contingent is balanced by the humungous size of the commitee. This commitee has 27 folks, an increase of 4 over SODA 2006 and 2005. Submission counts have been going up by a little under 10% each year, and I guess Hal Gabow is also trying to reduce the load on each committee member: 500 * 3/27 = 55.56. Good luck, folks !!
In other news, short papers are still dead. May they rest in peace
I heard the short papers are just a manifestation of you know who, and they are going to make their standard attempt for domination in the next SODA buisness meeting. I am afraid that even magic would not be enough to bring them back to life.

I was pissed off by one SODA short paper, as I can not follow it at all. And the author keep referring his full version which never shows up on his website.
