This page is for authors who have had material accepted to present at BSDCon '03. If you wish to submit a paper or deliver a talk at another upcoming USENIX event, please return to the Events Calendar page and select the conference in which you're interested.

Accepted authors, please read this page!

1. Register for the conference as soon as possible! Registration materials will be online soon. Please note: one author per paper may take a registration discount of $200. If the registration fee poses a hardship to the presenter, the USENIX Conference Department can offer a complimentary registration.

2. Be aware that both an approved printout and electronic versions--PostScript or PDF and HTML--of your paper are due in the USENIX office on or before 8 July 2003. This is a firm deadline. Papers not received by that date will not be included in the printed conference proceedings.

You need no longer send physical copies to the USENIX office. Simply email the PDF or PostScript file of your paper and your fax number to jel@usenix.org. We will gladly print the paper in our office and fax you a copy for approval. You should send the consent form by regular mail or fax to the USENIX office.
