Dear Organizers,
one general question on the proceedings deadline:
Are you sure that it is good practice to put a deadline on a Sunday?
At the end of the day, you force plausibly all authors to work during weekend (which does not matter)... and thus generate an unwanted impact on their families... (which does matter).
Putting the deadline on a working day does not come with extra cost and effort, no?
Please consider this as feed-back and not as a criticism.
Best regards
Michael Deveaux
