Subject: [BioNLP] World’s Biggest Computer Conference WORLDCOMP is Cancelled
To: bionlp at lists.ccs.neu.edu
The world’s biggest computer science conference WORLDCOMP is canceled
after twelve successful years of service. Defamation campaign is going
on WORLDCOMP: https://sites.google.com/site/dumpconf or
http://dumpconference.ueuo.com or
https://sites.google.com/site/moneycomp1 or
http://weka.8497.n7.nabble.com/WORLDCOMP-World-s-Biggest-Bogus-Conference-is-Back-Again-td26681.html
or Google using the words worldcomp, fake or worldcomp, bogus.
We filed lawsuits in 2012 to stop this defamation but no use. Due to
this, we are finding it highly difficult to get paper submissions,
sponsors, etc. We are determined to solve this problem permanently
through legal channels. We are focusing all our efforts on legal
matters and that’s why we canceled WORLDCOMP’13. We update WORLDCOMP’s
website also, once we complete some legal/technical formalities.
As ordered by the University of Georgia, Prof.Hamid Arabnia
(http://www.cs.uga.edu/~hra WORLDCOMP coordinator) is refunding half
the amount of the registration fee for all the registered authors of
WORLDCOMP from 2005-2012. If you are a registered author and your
physical address is changed then send an email to hra (AT) cs.uga.edu
and CC to morehead (AT) uga.edu with your name, year, paper title,
list of all co-authors of the paper, the amount of fee you paid, and
the new mailing address for sending the refund check. The deadline to
email this information is one week from now. Please forward this email
to all your friends who have papers in previous WORLDCOMPs.
Sincerely,
AMG Solo (Ashu Solo)
