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 will receive a registration discount of $200. USENIX will offer a complimentary registration upon request.

2. Electronic versions—PDF and HTML—of your paper and a fax number for at least one author on the day of submission are due on or before April 29, 2008. This is a firm deadline. Papers not received by that date will not be included in the printed conference proceedings.

Email the PDF and HTML files of your paper and your fax number to jel@usenix.org. USENIX will fax a printout of your paper to you, sending you email notification of the fax.

4. IMPORTANT: Read these instructions on generating PDF from LaTeX and follow them carefully. You will save a lot of time and hassle at the deadline. Naively produced PDFs may contain such errors as incorrect ligatures, nonprinting figures or parts of figures, or incorrect or missing special characters, any of which make your paper unreadable.

5. Need advice about generating HTML? See these Tips for Conversion from LaTeX to HTML.
