It's time to rate the papers!
What a great response. We received more than 90 abstracts for papers and posters for Discovery Summit. Now the hard work of selecting papers begins.

We will be using the attached JMP Add-in for the ratings process.
Please download the add-in and install it in JMP 12 (if you don't have JMP 12, please let me know!).
After installing it you will find a Rate Papers for Discovery US 2016 item in your Add-Ins menu.
Choose this item and you can start the ratings process. You are asked to rate each paper/poster on a 5 point scale.

Notes:
- You may find it useful to page through the attached PDF of the abstracts before using the app to rate them. This will give you an opportunity to see all the prospects before rating them.
- Use the Next and Previous buttons to move among the papers. Your ratings are saved automatically when you move to the next or previous paper.
- The Save button under the Comments field is only necessary if you're typing a long comment and want to make sure it's saved along the way.
- The Pop Out button will create a new window with the current paper. This is handy if you want to compare two papers on the screen at the same time.
- You can use the check boxes or the Advanced Filter to limit the papers shown.
- The Distributions report shows the number of papers you've assigned for each rating 1 through 5.
- You can close the window at any time and pick back up again later.
When you are done rating papers click the Submit button to send the results back to me (jeff.perkinson@jmp.com).
The application should open a new mail message and attach a JMP data table with your ratings. Please check for the attachment before sending. If the attachment isn't there, you'll find the ratings in a folder named Discovery on your desktop.
Please submit your ratings by the end of the day on 11Apr2016.
Please let me know if you have any difficulty. You can post a comment on this document in the JMP User Community or contact me directly.

FYI - item number 301 is the same as 315, and item 318 is not in the pdf.
Yes, 4 is most advanced.
A mix is nice to have but we can work on that at the time of selection. For now, just rate the papers and we can examine the balance when we meet to discuss the rankings.

Refresh my memory please. Is a skill level of 4 most advanced, and 1 the lowest? And do we want a variety of different skill level presentations?
