The purpose of this mailing list to provide a forum for announcements of interest to those who attend PODC as well as for the discussion of non-technical topics of interest to the group, such as siting of the conference. The PODC list is intended for announcements of interest to PODC participants. These may be announcements of publications, employment opportunities, or events of interest. For conferences and workshops, announcements are limited to the following: PODC (and conferences and workshops affiliated with PODC), ALGOSENSORS, DISC, ICALP, ICDCN, ICDCS, OPODIS, PPoPP, SIROCCO, SPAA, and SSS. Persons posting for these conferences and workshops are requested to avoid, wherever possible, duplicate postings (including long series of deadline extensions). For special journal issues, announcements are limited to those connected directly to PODC. If your announcement is to publicize a conference or workshop not listed above or a special journal issue not directly connected to PODC, please use the PODC-RELATED list by posting to podc-related@listserv.acm.org. Please do not post the same message to the PODC list and the PODC-RELATED list. It is expected that all subscribers to the PODC-RELATED list are also subscribed to the PODC list. It is expected that traffic on this list will be relatively light. The moderator of this list is Gil Neiger.
