The reasons for these requirements are:- to promote the education of editors
- in electronic publication techniques (through hands-on experience in the PAC and EPAC Editorial Offices and at the technical Team Meetings)
- in JACoW publication requirements to ensure smooth and efficient publication on the JACoW site
- to ensure continuity of knowledge and experience- to share the overall burden among the whole

Why the poor attendance?Why the poor attendance?
In both cases:– lack of “team spirit”– lack of continuity, and hence sense of responsibility, in
most conference series’– reluctance to continue supporting an Editor once a
conference is over– financial
depends on the capacity of PAC and EPAC to support editors through conference budgets for Steering Committee meetings, and
individual laboratories in the case of Team Meetings exceptions: CERN, DESY, INFN-LNF, KEK …)

Increase awareness by Collaborating Series’– Demonstrate the advantages– Evaluate the cost and “value for money”– Include a JACoW Activities line in conference budgets– Extend sharing of burden of Editor education to other
conference series (Linac, Cyclotrons, ICALEPCS, etc.)– Modify Boundary conditions to take this into
consideration
