<p class="MsoNormal">Hello!<br>
<br>
If you are a Programming Committee member of one of the following tracks, please take a look at this spreadsheet. It contains the title, abstract, and track of all Workshops submitted. We have very limited space for workshops, so we're pulling this out of the
 normal Track Chair selection process. The count for the number of workshops is on the second worksheet in the spreadsheet.
<br>
<br>
We'll be pulling these workshops out of the tracks before Community Voting since they're not typically voted on. This will also prevent them from being seen in the Track Chair tool. So please reference the spreadsheet and ID when letting us know your choices.<br>
<br>
Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns.<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
Jimmy<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#909AA4">Speaking of things that we could fix for next year.... This Summit we had workshops submit under normal tracks, but simply specify that they were a workshop under "Presentation Type" dropdown in the submission
 form.  Unfortunately, this caused a bit of confusion. As a result, we'll be pulling these out of the CFP review and sending them to the Presentation Committee Chairs separately with a max number they can choose per Track.
<br>
<br>
The idea is to make sure we have enough workshops to fill the workshop space, and avoid having them take up one of your normal presentation slots in the schedule.
<br>
<br>
So... stand by for further communication from myself or Kendall on this. <br>
<br>
Thanks! <br>
Jimmy <br>
