No FUN for me. :( Other conferences?

FUN with Algorithms 2010 is taking place in Italy in early June. I submitted two papers, but neither of them made it in.

I would normally still probably try to go, but I'm getting married shortly afterwards. (Woohoo!) Without the excuse of presenting a paper, I won't attempt to squeeze these things together.

I've missed a lot of following paper deadlines, and there are others that I am either interested in or would consider submitting to. Here's a little list of what's already passed by (but might be candidates in future years):

FUN 2010
AOFA 2010
SWAT 2010
ICALP 2010
COCOON 2010
FAW 2010

Those still coming are:

GandALF 2010
FOCS 2010
SAGT 2010
COMSOC 2010
ICS 2011
INTEGERS 2010 (I don't have a site for this yet. INTEGERS 2009 had a very short submission/acceptance time.)
LAGOS 2011

(These are listed in order of (expected) submission deadline, not actual conference dates.)

I mostly catch these as they come through Theory Net. I'm likely out of touch with some more math-based feeds, though. Can anyone suggest other conference options?

Also, I've played a bunch of games of bOOleO this week already! This is an excellent card game! If I ever teach a machine organization course, I will somehow work this in as an example of logic gates!

This week and next semester

Unfortunately, I am too busy today to get down a proper post. Finals have begun at Wittenberg and I have a stack of exam-writing and grading to get down to. On Wednesday I expect to write a longer post than the past few Wednesdays have allowed. I plan also to post on Friday.

After that, winter break is well underway and things will likely be more scattered until the new year. The spring semester begins here at Wittenberg on January 11, so regular posting will resume quickly. I again have MWF classes so I should be able to keep up the same MWF schedule we've become accustomed to here. I may even get my posts up earlier in the morning.

I'd like to graphically jazz up the blog a bit, but I'm not much of a layout specialist. If you have any ideas or images, I'm all ears! (Or eyes.)

Although the break seems like a great time to post about games, I will be somewhat distracted trying to prepare for the FUN with Algorithms paper deadline on January 15. I can only assume gamesters have a good shot at this conference :)
