[Corpora-List] RE : corpora-list: publishing lists of accepted and rejected papers

[FORT, Karen]

Hi,

I find that offensive too, but maybe it's because I'm young (well, not in age I'm afraid) AND a woman.  This kind of remark could be an argument in favour of double blind review, but I too like the transparency proposal.

We had an attempt at this (transparency of ranking in positions in institutions) in France, but the rules are not very clear whether it's legal or not. Still, a very good idea.

-- May I timidly point out that I find that offensive?

-- But, to return to the general point, I like the transparency that Ramesh is suggesting. Also, it is not unthinkable that unsuccessful job applicants should be listed, there are already places where job applicants are ranked in order of how well they did in the selection processes and that information is made publicly available.
