[Adta] Call for Papers

[skdmt2]

I hope that some d/mts send in a proposal. Participating in conferences such
as this one is one way we can educate more widely about our work. 

It would be wonderful to have d/mt included in this conference. Please let
us know on the listserve if anyone has a proposal accepted.
