yes I agree that the 500 word minimum is OK for academic, not necessary for normal presentations.

Hi Dave,

I see... hmmm the reason they are that long is so that we have something to

I can remove the discard line for the general presentation track.

There is feedback that the requirement for a
500-600 word abstract is too long - see right
