Posting a conference CFP in here is explicitly against the list content
guidelines, so as a moderator I should have rejected your message, like
I normally do for things like this.
https://oss-security.openwall.org/wiki/mailing-lists/oss-security#list-content-guidelines
"Please don't post conference CFPs, (e-)magazine calls for articles, and
survey questionnaires. (These are generally cross-posted to lots of
places, and oss-security list members have expressed that they do not
want to see them here.)"
However, yours appeared to be more relevant and less typical than
others, so I made an exception. Without setting a precedent, please.
In return, I ask you to please also bring in here relevant proceedings
from this workshop, properly summarized and formatted for list postings.
Where "relevant" means focus on open source software security.
If you don't do that, I'll know to reject further CFPs from you and also
from others despite of seemingly greater-than-average relevance. I'll
learn my lesson... again, as I tried this thing with someone else before
and I think they never got back to this community.
Basically, this is not a place to (solely) advertise your events. You
have to bring on-topic content directly to here.
Will you, please?
Thanks,
Alexander
P.S. I don't know how my tone comes across. So let me clarify: no hard
feelings and not really complaining (rejecting a message wouldn't be
much effort), just using this opportunity to get desirable content. :-)
