How will SIGGRAPH Asia 2009 address network failures?
SIGGRAPH Asia 2009 is only responsible for the availability of the submission server. If the Internship Program Chair is notified of a hardware or service failure for the submission system, he will authorize an appropriate adjustment and prominently post notices at several locations. All other network failures between your location and the SIGGRAPH server will not exempt you from the deadline. Please apply early to avoid connectivity-support problems or last-minute server performance. Note: The local clock on the submission server determines the final submission deadline time.
