Since I am leaving the department, the PL seminar needs a new
organizer for the coming year.
Here are the duties of the organizer:
* Be the administrator of the pl-seminar mailing list, a task
requiring very little effort.
* Organize and announce seminar talks. Minimally, this means sending
out talk announcements and occasionally reserving rooms.
* Maintain the PL area web site at < http://www.cs.wisc.edu/areas/pl/
>. Minimally, this means keeping the seminar, students, and alumni
pages up-to-date. (The reading group page is currently maintained
separately by Aditya.) A more enthusiastic maintainer may want to
give the whole PL site a general overhaul, as it is beginning to look
dated.
There's no particular reason why all these tasks need rest upon one
person. If you want to design a great new web site for us, but don't
want to handle room reservations, that would still be helpful. But I
do need volunteers for all the tasks described above by the end of the
month.
If you are willing to help out, come talk to me in CS 6355.
Volunteers will be given chocolate covered coffee beans.
