* We require that there be at least one unique registered participant per paper presented at the conference. (That person needn’t be first author, but just can’t also be the only registered author on some other paper. So for example, if you wanted to be first author on two papers, that would be fine, provided that for at least one of the papers, one of your co-authors was also registered for the conference, and that person was not also the only registered author on some other paper.)
