   - **There are two main deadlines to respect, [[start|the first]] for the initial version of your paper, and the second, for the revised version.** Naturally, it can sometimes happen that authors aren't able to meet a deadline, in which case a reasonable extension can be granted, but a significant delay may result in the editors' deciding to reject the paper on the basis of lateness.
   - **There is a [[style_sheet|style sheet]] for the volume that you should do your best to follow when writing your paper.** Flagrant disregard for the style sheet on the part of authors may result in the editors' deciding that the extra editorial work posed for them by the paper simply isn't worth the effort.
-  - **There is a [[latex_template|LaTeX template]] for the volume that you should use when writing your paper.** The use of LaTeX is a near-hard requirement, but exceptions can be made, if necessary. If your paper needs to be an exception, please get in touch with the editors beforehand. Please be aware that there's no one on this side who is paid to format the volume, nor is the volume sent to a country with lower wages to be formatted. On this side, it's just the editors, who edit the volume on a voluntary, unpaid basis.

   - **The [[start|page limit]] for your paper will be strictly enforced.** In the interest of fairness and in order to keep the volume manageable, no exceptions to the page limit will be made.
   - **If you're uncertain about your written English, we expect you to have your paper proofread for grammar and style before submitting it.** For obvious reasons.
-Our aim is to complete the volume by the end of 2020, but whether this is feasible also depends on the timing and work of the authors and reviewers, so we can't yet say for certain that we'll be able to complete the volume by the end of 2020.
