Rejected / accepted papers and PC Meeting

Hey Hey!

Unfortunately, our paper did not make it to REFSQ 2017 this time. Congrats to the accepted paper, and good luck for the others!

I was at the REFSQ PC meeting a couple of weeks ago, early December and it was a really exciting new experience for me as pat of the community of researchers. And I’m proud and honored to be part of the RE@Next! 2017, a special track of the RE 2017 conference ! So consider to submit there as well !!

When summer rhymes with …

Proposals! Submitted three partnership proposals during July and August … Fingers crossed now.

Submissions! (part 1) Fortunately, I did not submitted to ICSE. Like it or not, ICSE is not my favorite place. I acknowledge it is the place to be. It is the place to present your ideas and meet people. But it is not the place where Legal requirements, legal compliance, and more generally requirements engineering has a true chance to go in. And, to be honest, if we have a look to the trend of papers that were accepted in the last years, it is not really encouraging, for me at last.

Submissions! (part 2) For RE matters, better consider REFSQ 2017 that will be in Essen next year! Submission deadlines are approaching. Abstract are due on Sept. 26th, full papers on Oct. 3rd!

Hope to see you there! REFSQ 2017
