The Problem l JACo. W Many conferences, EPAC included, have included the email addresses of participants and authors in their proceedings. o 16 of the 27 conferences since 1995 have published email addresses of participants and in one case they are in HTML. l l l There have been a couple of complaints about this. Search engines like Google can find these and so can other people who might use the addresses for spamming. Should we continue this practice or should we make it a guideline that proceedings should not contain email addresses ? Email Address Publication, Team Meeting, Frascati, 2005, J. Poole 1

The context l JACo. W Email addresses can be found for most people by visiting their institute’s web site and looking them up in the phone book. o But this requires that you know who to look for. l The inclusion of email addresses in the papers themselves is an increasingly common practice and they can therefore be extracted from the PDF. o But not for the whole conference in one go. l Scanning lists of participants or making an image is not an answer because Acrobat uses OCR and you can still save as text (see scanned papers) from the PDF.

Proposal l l JACo. W Do we agree that JACo. W should recommend that in future, conferences do not include email addresses in their proceedings ? What is the impact of this on the OAI data which we publish – author’s emails are in there as well ! Email Address Publication, Team Meeting, Frascati, 2005, J. Poole 6
