The Nashville conference had two excellent tracks and at times it was
hard to decide which talk to attend.  Unfortunately, only one track
had corresponding papers in the proceedings.  Would it be possible to
publish in the conference proceedings, at the very least the
abstracts, and preferably full papers for all tracks?  I realize this
might lead to an even bulkier and more expensive book, but otherwise I
don't have anything to look at for the second track to help me decide
which talk to go to or for later reference.
