From the CFP online I’d just like to make three remarks now:
a) most topics have a very close match with a lot of work that has been done so far by many GaLA partners, which became even more apparent to us all, during the review days at Genoa;
b) FDG workshop publications are usually archived n the ACM Digital Library, which is particularly attractive for many academics worldwide.
c) there’s still over two months before the submission deadline, but let’s not fool ourselves (again…) 
In short, I can only strongly encourage everyone in GaLA to prepare and submit (joint) research papers to this highly-rated conference workshop.
