Feedback after submission of a workshop?

Posted by Franz-Josef Behr on February 13, 2013

Somebody asked for a confirmation after submissions.
Should the system send out one?

Regards - Franz-Josef

Hi Franz-Josef, I submitted both an abstract and a seminar, but got no confirmation by email: is this normal? Thanks again, and see you in Nottingham! All the best.

I've just had someone email me saying they've not had confirmation. I personally worry when I don't get confirmation messages, especially since I might want to edit my submission (this guy wants to add a co-author).

If confirmations and editing are not possible, it should say it in big friendly letters, and there should be an email contact for edit requests.

We cant set automatic confirmations.  What I will do is a weekly confirmation on a Friday.

OK, an alternative!
