HI !

  extending a deadline to Jan 19 in a mail sent Feb 1 will not do much to
promot submissions ;) is that a typo or did we simply get this too late ?
We would be happy to submit our works on safety aspects of virtualization
(not security) - but would need a bit of time to get a clean abstract out
to you.

thanks !
