I've got something for your CFP...

Somewhat relevant (and more amusing) is the story of Scigen[1], a tool that three MIT CS PhD students put together to generate fake but legitimate-looking papers in order to troll conferences with low/no acceptance standards.<p>Their site also tells the story of submitting and attempting to present a paper to shame one of these spammy, fake conferences.<p>[1] <a href="http://pdos.csail.mit.edu/scigen/" rel="nofollow">http://pdos.csail.mit.edu/scigen/</a>

Great that it's listed in his official list of papers.<p>From <a href="http://www.scs.stanford.edu/~dm/home/papers/" rel="nofollow">http://www.scs.stanford.edu/~dm/home/papers/</a><p>"Submitted to the 9th World Multi-Conference on Systemics, Cybernetics, and Informatics, Orlando, FL, July 2005... Note: We never received official notification of whether the paper was accepted or rejected."

Weak accept.

Next time use RSS instead of giving your email. err...maybe RSS is dead by now.<p>Oh dear :-(

What's a CFP?
