Philosophy Conferences and Calls for Papers

Thomas Nadelhoffer has asked that we make an announcement for the 1st Annual On-line Philosophy Conference (OPC),which will tentatively run from April 14th to 27th (2006) and which will be hosted on the newly created OPC blog. And while the first installment of OPC is a mostly invited affair, the conference organizers are nevertheless issuing a call for papers for both junior philosophers (PhD in the past five years) and graduate students (the call for papers and directions for submissions can be found on the OPC blog). Hopefully, some of you will be interested in (a) submitting a paper for the conference, (b) offering to give commentary on some of the invited papers, or (c) both (a) and (b). Minimally, it would be nice if everyone participatd in the comment threads once the conference begins.
