First off, the page is titled "Submit Paper", but there's actually  
nothing about submitting papers here at all... all it asks you about  
is the session you'd like to run.  Is the public web page  you  
mention actually the "paper", or do I still need to submit an actual  
paper that will be printed in proceedings?  If so, what's the format/ 
template, suggested length etc.?

Think I'd at least want a description of the three track names  
somewhere on the page (preferably a short one in the dropdown itself,  
maybe more elsewhere if needed)-- they're not the most self- 
explanatory names in the world.

"Protagonist" is a pretty unusual term, I think "Target Audience"  
would be clearer.

Also, I assume the fields marked "*" are mandatory, but it doesn't  
actually say that anywhere :)

Cheeri,
Calum.
