EACL 2027: Author response and author-reviewer discussion are now two separate stages and allow more time [D](reddit.com)

EACL 2027 just published their CFP which contains an important change to the common ARR process: For this cycle, author response and author-reviewer discussion are two separate stages Looking at the deadlines, they not only split the process but also allow more time: Author response period Sept 14-19, 2026 Reviewer engagement and Author-reviewer discussion Sept 20-24, 2026 Previously, ARR cycles only gave five days in total for the discussion period. ARR May 2026, for example, only gives July 7 to July 13 for the total authors-reviewer discussion (no separate author response period). In summary, that means not only that the process is being split in two stages but you now also have more time. --- In my opinion this is really good as in the past having just 5 days to post a reply (potentially involving new experiments - even though that is not the original idea of the discussion period) and getting into a discussion with the reviewers felt very tight - for authors and reviewers. I am, therefore, really looking forward to this change. Any thoughts? submitted by /u/S4M22 [link] [Kommentare]
