[open-science] EIM 2011 submission deadline and early registration

[Matt Jones]

The deadline for paper submissions to the Environmental Information
Management (EIM) 2011 Conference has been extended.  The *new deadline for
submissions is June 5, 2011*.  Anyone who has already submitted may also
submit a revised submission by the new extended deadline, and that revised
submission will be used during peer-review.  The deadline for posters and
BoF sessions did not change (July 31, 2011).

In addition, note that the *early registration deadline is June 15, 2011* and
that substantial savings can be had by registering for the conference by
that date.

Details on both of these changes are on the conference web site:
   https://eim.ecoinformatics.org/eim2011

Contact the conference co-chairs with any questions.

Sincerely,
