Re: Delay on conferences showing up on the site

Thank you for the clarification. If I am reading your comments correctly, I would need to submit a second item so we would be listed under the CfP and the Upcoming Conferences, correct? If so, I will update the original news item to only discuss the conference and will submit a new one for the CfP.
