It is our pleasure to announce the keynote speakers for MSR 2011 in Hawaii.

Yuanyuan Zhou will talk about her tech-transfer experiences from copy-paste detection to checking for known bugs.
 
She is a Qualcomm Chair Professor at University of California, San Diego. She is also the CTO and co-founder for PatternInsight, whose tools have been used in several large companies to improve software quality. http://cseweb.ucsd.edu/~yyzhou/
   
Jim Whitehead will talk about computer games and opportunities for mining.
 
He is an Associate Professor of Computer Science at the University of California, Santa Cruz, where he performs research in the fields of software evolution, software bug prediction, and automated generation of computer game levels. http://users.soe.ucsc.edu/~ejw/

The registration for the MSR conference is now open. Early registration ends April 15. To register, please visit the following URL: http://2011.icse-conferences.org/registration

We look forward to seeing you in Hawaii!

While the PC is making its final decisions for the author notification tomorrow, we would like to announce a partnership between MSR and PROMISE: 

This year, MSR has teamed with the PROMISE conference to manage storage of data from MSR 2011 papers. If you are able to so, we strongly encourage you to submit the data associated with your accepted paper to the PROMISE repository of reproducible SE experiments. 

By storing your data in a publicly accessible location, your papers will get cited more (since they will be the origin of a line of research based around your data). 

Also, by interacting with other researchers using your data, you may discover ways to enhance your analysis method (perhaps resulting in more publications, or novel grant opportunities, in the future). 

For information on how to donate data to PROMISE, see "How to donate data" at http://promisedata.org/?cat=11.
