Dear Nestor, all,
I understand your point, it also sounds like he didn't handle it very well.
It's unfortunate, his postdoc is very good but new to the field so I think
that he feels bad for missing the opportunity for him and is trying to find
a working group which might still have a slot. Personally, I think the
presentation should be very interesting, it's a little known and rather new
channel with a lot of potential, so I think it would be good to have its
exposure. We had discussed it among our WG and agreed that we could give
him a slot -- I then also checked with Yoshi whether they were planning to
after new slots opened (Samuel had told us that he had contacted WG5 first
but there were no slots). He said they weren't but they could offer a swap
if we wanted to have the talk. I don't know how he approached Yoshi,
perhaps the request wasn't made in the best way, but I thought his email to
us was OK. I think with the extra slots it would still be worth to accept
the talk as an exception, as it would otherwise just penalise the postdoc
and it wasn't his fault. But Guillaume, Rafał, please say if you don't
agree.
Many thanks,
Daria

Dear Daria,
I am sorry - I know Samuel, we were postdocs together at DESY too long ago
😉 -, but in my opinion it cannot be. Samuel already tried with Yoshi Hatta
in WG5, and got a no. With the rejection rate that you have had to fulfil
and after getting a no from WG5, I honestly find this request a bit
outrageous.
If even with these considerations you find the talk a must, I let the
decision to you. If you decide to reject it, I may tell Samuel myself if
you prefer.
Best
Nestor

Hi Nestor,
We had a request for a talk from someone who missed the abstract
submission. I know the people and the project well and I think this would
be a very interesting talk, we were happy to give a them one of the extra
slots which have opened. The postdoc (Saad Nabeebaccus) who would be
presenting is new in the field and his adviser (Samuel Wallon) who should
have known about DIS in good time is bogged down with high-level admin, so
I can see how they could have missed the deadlines. Can we include their
talk? I can forward the abstract Saad sent me by email.
Thanks,
Daria
