LFG 2008 - First call for papers (revised)

[Josef van Genabith]

Dear all,

does anybody know the reason for the new restriction on the number of 
submissions (see below) in the revised call for papers for LFG 2008? Is 
there a grave danger of there being a number of  evil :-) individuals 
submitting 12 abstracts each, all in danger of getting accepted through 
anonymous peer review?

Seriously, shouldn't such matters simply be decided via open competition 
on the quality of the submissions as established by anonymous peer review?

Regards,

Josef
