POROI’s CMS experienced an issue yesterday that prevented some users from creating new accounts. That issue should now be resolved. I want to ensure that anyone who may not have registered before still have the chance to submit work, so the submission window will stay open until Monday, May 19th.
Reminder that 500-word proposals for the special issue of POROI are due next week on May 15th (Thursday).
Please distribute widely. POROI is publishing a special issue with 19.1:
