I would like to discuss the short papers, in order to avoid a situation where the NAACL HLT short paper track diverges from the new ACL short paper track in weird ways. Specifically, the issues are:
- Parallel submission to short and long paper tracks. I think this has been agreed on by email, but it may be good to formally agree, and to talk about date ranges for concreteness.
- Topics.
- Target acceptance rates.
- Presentation types.
- Detail: I think we should not include the references in the short paper page limit, either (i.e., 4+references, not 4 including references).
I will be happy to present the NAACL policy on these issues, which can change of course as a result of the ACL Exec discussion.
This discussion will set policy which the PC co-chairs will need to take into account when drafting the CfP. Note that NAACL sees short papers as the preferred way to explore making the conference more diverse, so this topic is also implicated in this discussion.
