PLoP 2006 Shepherded Papers

Notes on Paper 30:

I ended up being the shepherd for paper #030, "Towards a Pattern
Language for Interactive Information Graphics". I only got into the
action about two weeks ago, so there was only one major iteration and a
couple of smaller ones.

The paper can stand a lot of improvement, but this is a very
interesting project by people who are experts in the subject matter and
newbies at patterns, so they will get a lot out of PLoP. Moreover, they
are working on a big pattern language. They have nearly 100 patterns
on their list, though they have only written up a few of them. So,
they will need encouragement and support. They are more from the CHI
community than the OOPSLA community.

I recommend we accept it.

Accept. Part of bigger work. Seems of good quality and complete. Authors clearly know their domain.
