Dear [invitefirstname],<br />
<br />
PLEASE READ THIS ENTIRE EMAIL. WE ARE DOING THINGS DIFFERENTLY THIS YEAR.<br />
<br />
We would like to invite you to serve on the Program Committee for<br />
[confName] [confYR] ([acronymYR]). [acronymYR] will be held in<br />
[confLocation], on [confDate].<br />
<br />
The success of the conference and the strength of the technical<br />
program depend very much on the expertise, guidance and judgment of<br />
the many reviewers who serve on the program committee.<br />
<br />
Would you be willing to serve as a reviewer?<br />
<br />
We realise you are very busy and have many commitments, but we are<br />
trying to keep the load reasonably low, and it is expected that each<br />
reviewer will be asked to review at most 4 submissions in total (both<br />
long and short, as the deadline is joint). A key difference from<br />
previous years is that the initial reviewing timeframe is shorter --<br />
two weeks, from 13-27 February 2017.<br />
<br />
Additionally, we would strongly encourage you to review what<br />
additional changes we have planned for ACL 2017, including the use of<br />
the Toronto Paper Matching System. Please do visit our PC Chairs Blog<br />
to stay up to date (subscribe!) about the changes and our push for a<br />
transparent conference organization process:<br />
http://chairs-blog.acl2017.org<br />
<br />
Here is the reviewing schedule. Please take note of the key dates, or<br />
import the conference calendar (link below).<br />
<br />
KEY DATES<br />
<br />
- Long + short paper joint submission deadline: 6 February<br />
- Paper Bidding: 9-12 February <br />
- Assignments out to reviewers: 13 February <br />
- Reviewing period: 13-27 February (two weeks)<br />
- Reviews due: 27 February <br />
- Author response: 13-15 March<br />
- Reviewers to read author responses, update reviews: 16-20 March <br />
- Notification of acceptance: 30 March<br />
- Camera ready deadline: 15 April<br />
<br />
You will note that the initial review period is short and that more<br />
time has been allocated for discussion, as we feel discussion should<br />
be a key part of the review process. The shorter timeframe also means<br />
that reviewers need to be absolutely committed to turning in reviews<br />
on time. Please consider this charge carefully when accepting this<br />
invitation.<br />
<br />
To respond to this invitation to join the ACL 2017 program committee,<br />
please first accept or decline by following the below link, within a<br />
week of receiving this email.<br />

where you can also make a START V2 account if you don't have one.<br />
<br />
Then, if you are willing to review for ACL, please complete this form<br />
where you can specify your reviewing preferences over different areas:<br />
<br />
https://knmnyn.typeform.com/to/guN7TT<br />
<br />
Note that you have the option to express a preference for multiple<br />
areas. We will assign you to a single area, based on your area<br />
preferences as well as the requests of the area chairs. We will try to<br />
select your primary choice(s) over your secondary choice(s), and will<br />
not assign you to an area for which you do not want to review. <br />
<br />
With your help, we know that we can make [acronymYR] a success.<br />
<br />
Best Regards,<br />
<br />
Regina Barzilay and Min-Yen Kan<br />
for ACL 2017<br />
