* The keynote voting period was WAY too short. A week does not give people enough time to read up and do research on nominees they might want to vote for. In past years voting was up for much longer. I understand that the organizers are short on time, but any deviation from the norm should be emphasized and there should at least be a reminder announcement as we approach the deadline. I am somewhat involved with the website committee, so I imagine others that are less involved probably were also disappointed.
* Workshp and program committees seem to work independently generally and don't explicitly coordinate their deadlines. I think they end up around the same time due to the timeline but there's obviously some variation.
