ACM conference also classify your paper so 
that people who look for related work and
may not have quite the right keywords find
it anyway.

Yesterday Stephen found a paper on tracing 
in a lazy language that, despite its title, 
and despite claims in the introduction, 
comes awfully close to what John published
in essence in ESOP '01. 

But they wrote it in 98 or so. 

Why didn't we find it? The authors published
in some obscure Australian conference.
