Paper Completion and OOPSLA

I've finished writing my paper. Last weekend was spent converting it to the ACM Proceedings format and reducing it to two pages. After reading Dr. Xie's PowerPoint, “Common Technical Writing Issues,” I found many grammatical mistakes in my own writing. It was very helpful in getting the review process started. After I addressed Dr. Xie's comments and fixed the errors discussed in his presentation, I submitted it to the OOPSLA Student Research Competition; I also submitted a poster describing the approach discussed in the paper.
