Communicating with reviewers

Send­ing email to review­ers is more dif­fi­cult than it should be.

I sent the email out to many people ask­ing them to be review­ers for the con­fer­ence; it’s touch­ing how many people are pleased to be asked, and pleased to review, each year. It’s not a lot of work, and gives people a chance to see what’s hap­pen­ing and what oth­ers think is import­ant enough to want to talk about, which is enough for some people, but many do it to help. This sense of com­munity is what makes chair­ing a con­fer­ence like XML 2004 worthwhile.
