Dear OCS Developers,
I just recently help in organizing a conference, where we used your great system. There is one idea, that would - as I think - even more facilitate the process of creating conference proceedings from online contributions. The idea concerns restructuring the way how affiliations are handled. It would be great if several affiliations could first be entered into the system independent of the authors (ideally in a specific format, like "department, university, city, country"). In a second step, one would link authors to affiliations via numbers or other ways of reference. Therefore, it would be possible to have many to one and one to many mappings for authors and affiliations, which would be great for editing conference proceedings. Well that's just an idea, and i don't know how feasable such a change is. However, I would be happy, if you could consider this suggestion.
All the best,
