Author rebuttal for SoCG 2010

There appears to be an author rebuttal phase for socg 2010. This is causing some confusion since many of the reviews are blank. I suspect based on my experience with DB reviewing that this means the reviewers didn't want clarification.

I got one nontrivial "review" back, and am assuming that some response is called for. The text is phrased not so much as a request for clarification but as an actual review. It's a bit easier when there's a specific question to be answered.

I'm glad the committee is doing this though, even with the extra effort involved. It's a good way of clarifying things that could otherwise have consequences beyond their importance.

  1. I got four different kinds of empty review. Should I be happy that everything in my paper is clear, or upset that my paper isn't interesting enough to generate questions?
